Around 2,000m of climbing to get round the full loop comfortably, even off the clock

Short, near-max punch for the timed climbs, repeated across three to five segments

Loose and sometimes wet gravel descents where handling and nerve win free time

Changeable mountain weather, and a tyre choice that trades rolling speed for grip

What your weeks look like

Typical sessions

Short hard repeats: 6 to 10 by 2 to 5 min near-max with full recovery, for timed-climb punch

Dedicated descending and gravel-skills sessions on loose and wet lines
