    You know when you look at them on the tellybox and wonder how steep they really are?

    Peyragudes, from this year.

    At the end of a day, that’s pretty brutal!

    The Cote de Jenkin Road, from the Yorkshire jaunt of the TDF.

    Are you allowed to dismount and run, like cyclocross?

    It’s all very well being able to ride fast up a hill but let’s see Contador try and run a successful gift shop.
    That will certainly sort the men from the boys.

    let alone the end

    Yeah but giving them a 100 mile run up is cheating isn’t it. Should be from a standing start.

    I imagine taking off from the runway at Peyragudes is done downhill. Which way do they land?
