Lucky Luke. Posted November 7, 2011 Posted November 7, 2011 That's a steep downhill at the finish. Do they give you a parachute at registration?
Zac.A Posted November 7, 2011 Posted November 7, 2011 Okay, but lets be honest the climbs are all about 500m except for the one which is probably 800m?Just because the one starts higher doesn't necessarily make it harder, in this case it does, but you also get flat races at high altitude.

There's a much bigger problem, though. The horizontal scale is completely wrong. Compare 80-83km and 33-40km, for example.

Tiny K Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 (edited) Yeah, that elevation graph is not really a true reflection of the actual profile. Edit: I think they should have stuck to intervals of 5Km and it would have a more accurate... Edited November 8, 2011 by Tiny K
Minion Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 Edit: I think they should have stuck to intervals of 5Km and it would have a more accurate...Hell, any interval would do so long as they stuck to the same one for the whole graph. You can't have 100px = 3km at one point and then 100px = 7km on the same axis.
FrankTank Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 What about the Argus vs Stage 18 of the 2011 TdF:

Lucky Luke. Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 There is a mystery pimple on the chappies profile.. was there a massive rockfall the day they created this profile?
