The last time I rode the R.G.V. route was December 23rd, 2022. That time was in an event. Today is just me and whoever is riding there. A high-speed sprinter&#8217;s course (not sure I&#8217;ll be sprinting that much) that traverses the flatter roads of the French countryside. There are 3 sprints over the 15.5 miles plus the Aqueduc KOM about halfway through the ride. The KOM averages 5%. Overall there is 437 feet of climbing. The route description was a little misleading for the France R.G.V route. I expected most of the climbing on the Aqueduc KOM but the climbing up to that point didn&#8217;t come near half of the 437 feet total for the ride. There were a number of smaller climbs after that to make up the difference waiting for my legs to tackle.
