This is definitely a tough route. I make it an extra 130km distance and 8,000m climbing vs 2019. Total climbing is 47km which is more than previous years, I think.
And the total length is about 400km more than I rode in 2016.
I guess they are making it harder each year as people get better at doing long rides.
...and party at the end of day 15 rather than 16 as last time!
Total distance is just a bit under 4200km
Based on RWGPS figures for rough routes plus Komoot for parcours.
Distance measurements are obviously more reliable than climbing.
