Frosty Posted September 27, 2015 Posted September 27, 2015 The riders have already covered 110km of the race. The tension is slowly riding as the laps click down and the fatigue begin to hurt the riders' legs.As boring as this course must be, the distance, cornering and those three climbs makes it an endurance event. I can understand why people prefer watching XC or DH vs road racing. Much like T20 or ODI vs Test cricket.

It's all about attention span; some people read books while others struggle with the 140 characters on a Twitter feed. To each his own.
