I think you need to conserve your energy and there's a little flat area towards the bobsleigh run.

nice col, always the same percentages a 7 %. You have LaPlagne and Belle Plagne but have to climb to 2050m altitude before riding the entire col.

mooie col, steeds dezelfde percentages a 7 %. Je hebt LaPlagne en Belle Plagne maar moet tot 2050m hoogte stijgen voor de gehele col te rijden.
