Headshot Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 Its long and a bit boring but I left it unedited to show how relentless it is. As usual the video doesn't do the steepness justice or the fact that there is barely anywhere to recover - one farmland traverse springs to mind.. I rode this with a severely mangled knee in a brace under my knee pads. By half way down my right hand was completely numb from braking. At one point I literally hug a tree on a switchback and fall down a slope trying to protect my injured knee. This stage came after a 300m climb. The next stage started after another 300m climb and was probably 3x as technical as this one. My knee could not cope and I pulled out of the race and drank beer in a French village.
