Well now... I've already hyped this stage, so let's just go over some numbers. The Puerto del Canto should soften up some legs with its 19km at 5% (max 8%). The Arcalís is 15km at 5.6%, max 8.5. But the numbers don't tell the whole story: the first 5km are easy, the last 10km are pretty much a sustained effort of 6-8%. I'm not sure that's the stuff of legend, but after 200km, two cat-2s and the Canto, things should break up in a hurry. Enjoy!
