12 kilometers of track and 1258 vertical meters make the climb to Angliru a legendary challenge in road cycling. In the first half you can bounce around at an incline of around 8 percent, while in the second half you expect an average of 13 percent - with two ramps over 20 percent. Here it is no shame, if you have to get off the saddle.

On the steepest sections it feels like the kind of all-out, knee-popping effort you might exert on a leg press machine in the gym. Pedal stroke after slow pedal stroke, I can feel the bike accelerate and then decelerate almost to a standstill in direct relation to the position of the cranks. Some of the hairpin apexes are obscenely steep, to the point where surely you would

flip over backwards if you chose the wrong line

Going up - pain, going down - fear. If it rains, it's the descent why you should consider climbing some other day.
