From May 8th to 12th, cyclists will be challenging the Tour de Hongrie. This small Central European country offers opportunities for a variety of riders, featuring a lineup of star cyclists on its startlist competing for sprint victories. Let's take a closer look at the upcoming stage.
The final day of racing is quite hard. The first two thirds of the stage are flat but the final third is very difficult. The riders will climb twice to Pecs which is 5.8Km at 6.8% but it's first 2 kilometers average 10%; the race can be destroyed here on any of them. However then the riders will still go up it once again, but have the finish line early in the climb, this one will be 2.3 kilometers long at 8.7% (but featuring quite steeper ascents).
