What do I need to know?
Ridium's training read and the caveats before you trust the times.
Gravel preparation should combine endurance volume with surface handling, fueling practice and fatigue-resistant tempo work.
The available elevation data points to a climbing-sensitive event where strength endurance and descent freshness matter.
Suggested preparation window: 12 weeks.
