Preview. On the 24th of February the riders take on a difficult race in France, the first of a very difficult weekend. It is the Faun-Ardèche Classic, a one-day race that features climbing from start to finish.
The 170 kilometers feature over 3000 meters of climbing. This starts right from the start line, the riders tackle an initial circuit with four ascents. Later the race is decided in a 6.3-kilometers asscent at 7.6% which summits with 20.5 kilometers to go, and the brutally steep Val d'Enfer which is 1.5 kilometers at over 10% which ends just 6 kilometers away from the flat finale.

- So he's got an attitude of egocentric proportions, typical Yorkshire guy then...

- Plus MVDP now having basically done 4 seasons in 2 years might warrant a slightly longer rest than usual, although even then his will STILL be shorter than 98% of all other pro cyclists in any field.Mistermaumau15-11-2024

- C’mon, they need this kind of gooey content in winter to stop readers switching off. Medias sowing seeds to provoke discussion and rumours that lead to a self-defined legitimacy to introduce undesired questions during rider interviews in order to boast delivery of “original” contentMistermaumau15-11-2024

- The reason you don’t see these type of websites often and certainly not in cycling might be that they die before you find them. But tell us about it when you’re done I’ll visit to check it out.Mistermaumau15-11-2024
- Someone should do this: create a cycling news site that is free with no ads. Watch the subscriptions like up. Then carefully and slowly introduce ads. I might do it myself. Sites like CUTD are poorly conceived and consequently a mess. Readers will leave as soon as there is a better alternative.Renz15-11-2024
