Takes a few goes to get up there; 10 second bursts; keep adding 1mph each attempt; 39x23; coffee essential; my legs were rebuilt using those red rubber bands that the posties drop on the pavement.
Don't know how many rpm you lose each year. I think Robbie McEwen's 35, and he still seems to have some snap.
