TdF Climb data

Jw_bike_sm_tiny by johnw on

I saw a neat chart a few years back that plotted the 2005 TdF climb categories. So I created a similar chart for 2006 and now for 2007. Just some geeky stuff in case you wanted to compare your massive thigh burner climb with some actual TdF climbs

Star-divide


For 2007 I extrapolated the 1st category and HC climbs out a few points. I did the same for the 2006 1st category climbs. The trend lines use power for fit.

Cool charts
We only have cat 4s and 3s here I guess. I've always wondered how they rate, thanks!

Of course
Stage 16, or as I think of it lately, the stage Floyd forgot to "drink Jack Daniels" the night before.
