The final stage of the Haute Route Pyrenees 2022 was the most important one!! Everything can happen and I could make or break my race this day. In stage 4 I attacked on the number 4 in the GC (Sami Inkinen) but lost more than I gained. Nevertheless I got very close to another rider.... I took a few risks in order to increase my chance of succes but did it play out?...
On this day we had a relative short stage but not less hard than others, ending with the biggest climb of all week: Col du Portet.
This is my experience of the Haute Route Pyrenees 2022. Haute Route is the hardest and most complete multi day event you can ride as an amateur cyclist. The stages are very similar to the Grand Tours of World tour Professianal cycists. In this event we raced 5 stages in 5 days, 627km and 15.700m of elevation, starting in Biarritz and ending in Saint Lary.
