Faun-Environnement, Partenaire Majeur des Boucles Drôme Ardèche 2023 ! #BDA23 #FaunEnvironnement #Partenaire #Ardèche #Drôme
The Faun classics weekend presents challenges for climbers and puncheurs, offering an opportunity to gauge their early-season form outside of stage races. The Faun-Ardèche Classic, scheduled for February 25th, stands out as one of the toughest one-day races of the season.
The 172-kilometer long route is highly mountainous with over 3000 meters of climbing. The climbing starts from kilometers 0 and is present almost all the way into the finish in Guilherand-Granges. The first loop - of which there will be two laps - includes a 9.9Km climb at 4.3%, a 1.7Km long climb at 3.9% and a 5.6Km climb at 4.2%.
The third look features a 1.9Km at 8.2% and a 6.3Km climb at 7.1%. All three laps also include the Côte de Val d'Enfer which comes only 6 kilometers before the finishing climb. It features 1.5 kilometers at an average of 10.3%, a very steep ascent where there is nowhere to hide and attacks are to be expected.
Start Time: 11:30CET
Finish Time: 16:00CET

- Some things sound crazy until they aren't, what if he's actually right? 🤷vappaxbipmv23-12-2024
- Why make a comment to state the obvious? Of course MvdP is much better at CX than Pogacar, does anyone doubt that But that wasn't his pointvappaxbipmv23-12-2024
- If you look at road alone obvi Pogacar is the better rider. But maybe MVDP is the better overall rider since he can win in three plus disciplines?mobk23-12-2024
- Correction on 2021 Olympics. It was mainly the Dutch ladies who didn’t know who was leading the race. Other teams like the Germans and Italians knew that Kiesenhofer was out front.mobk23-12-2024
- A champion turning into a sore loser. Or is he on coke again?
UltimateOpportunist23-12-2024 - If you look at the major races they’ve both been in, van der Poel had the early edge as lately Pogacar has had the advantage. It’s all on procyclingstats.RidesHills23-12-2024
- I wouldn’t assume Tadej can’t win at cross. He did a cross race, not a World Cup, a few years ago and crushed the field. It was a minor race. But he can win anywhere.mij23-12-2024
- I wonder what would happen if Pogacar attacked on the Cipressa instead of the Poggio in San Remo? Would MvdPoel still be able to follow?Ride197423-12-2024
- Debatable?Ride197423-12-2024
- The point is obvious: MVDP can beat Tadej on CX/Road and Tadej cannot. What is so hard to understand???averagecyclist22-12-2024
