A friend of mine spotted an MRC kit on Mt Baldy this weekend during ATOC. Any idea who it is?

I'm thinking a triathlete as that looks like a Garmin Forerunner on his left wrist:

Looks like the mighty Dave Corso.

Just got around to watching the finish of the stage of California on Mt. Baldy. Looks like an epic ride ( and wicked steep).
I wonder if this road is open in early spring? It'd be great to figure out how to make this part of the San diego training week.

Mr. Sclar - you are correct. Good call on the 310 (mine is mounted to the stem but wasn't working so I borrowed one). I was there all week and the kit was recognized 3 times. At the start in Seaside, someone in the SRAM car called me over and asked me if I knew PJ.
This climb was INSANE. Never got less than 9% for more than a few pedal strokes and hit grades around 18% as we got closer to the top. As an appetizer, we climbed from the bottom of Glendora Mtn Road, across the ridge then up Baldy. Great atmosphere with the crazies cheering us on all the way up.
