About 6-7% for the most part with a flat section in the middle and a last km of 9-10%

Well that comment by him was pretty stupid, it would of been easier for all the top riders to contest the big stages when juiced up as much as Chicken was

All of his victories apart from Aubsique came that way.

Atapuma is so strange.He was dropped by Pirazzi,Cunego etc. in stage 10 but today he is among the best.
These are real mountains and the altitude also plays a part Atapuma is pretty fine in the hills as well.Also he was very fine in Pologne 2013 on Bukowina Tatranszka.
Altitude plays a part but he was dropped by Rovny on stage 10.But today he is very good. |
