The "Love 197" East Coast Bicycle Road Race is held along the scenic Provincial Highway 11 and County Highway 197 in Taitung, known for its rolling hilly terrain and magnificent mountain and sea views.
What this race demands
This 130 km road ride demands sustained endurance over a rolling coastal route, requiring riders to manage fatigue across a long-distance effort.
Long-distance endurance
Covering 130 km requires a deep aerobic base and the ability to maintain steady energy output over several hours in the saddle.
Rolling terrain management
The undulating hill topography demands continuous pacing adjustments, requiring riders to efficiently manage effort across repeated small climbs and descents.
Given the duration of a 130 km ride, athletes should target 60 to 90 grams of carbohydrates per hour to sustain output and prevent late-race energy drops.
