    PJAMM Cycling invited me to join them on an epic cycling trip in Bolivia. I packed up Barney (my gravel bike) and embarked on an adventure I'll never forget. Thanks to ‪@PJAMMCycling‬ and specifically Javier Chacon for letting me use their footage in this video. Stay tuned for the next episode where we cycle up the Death Road!

    Just curious (in case I missed it)… how long did it take you physically to adjust to the altitude??

    • @MitchBoyer
      @MitchBoyer  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I was only in Bolivia for a week so there was basically no time to adjust to the altitude🤪 the advice I received was basically “just go slower” but I was still surprised at how much slower I needed to go. I lost about 40-50 watts in my zone 2 pace
