La Rioja Bike Race: Stage 3 Details

Read here the details and the profile of the third and the last stage of La Rioja Bike Race, which takes place on May 15, 2016.

STAGE 3
Colour: Yellow
Start: 10:00
Distance: 54,7 km
Climbing: 1.510 m
Winner’s time: 12:10
Start & finish poin: Palacio de los Deportes de La Rioja
Aid stations:
1 - km 19,2 - Sorzano (10:40)
2 - km 34,9 - Sojuela (11:25)
Description:
The final stage will be the least demanding although the fatigue and its single long climb and subsequent downhill, will be determinant. It begins in opposite direction to the final part of the previous days, gently gaining altitude and getting considerably tougher after the first aid station. The climb to Moncalvillo is faced from an unprecedent side for the race. Halfway up, it diverges to take the great Medias Neveras descend, another of the area and race’s highlights. It ends close to Sojuela, where the route heads towards Hornos de Moncalvillo to enjoy its trails and singletracks, before facing the final finish line in opposite direction to the start and avoiding the singletracks of Peña del Águila.
