What this race demands
The 150 km distance demands sustained endurance and the ability to manage effort over a long gravel ride. The event is listed for mid-April in the Wörthersee-Rosental region, and its description notes challenging climbs.
Sustained endurance
At 150 km, the ride calls for prolonged aerobic effort and pacing that can be maintained over a long distance.
Climbing capacity
The event description identifies challenging climbs, so riders need to sustain effort on ascents. The amount of climbing is not stated.
Early-season readiness
The event is scheduled for 18 April, so riders need to be ready for a long ride relatively early in the season.
For a ride likely to exceed 2.5 hours, plan roughly 60–90 g of carbohydrate per hour to support sustained effort.
