I wasn’t feeling 100% so I knew it would be a struggle. However, this is a catch-up week in which I need to complete Stages 5 and 7 which for some reason never appeared on my schedule. Stage 5’s A route was Achterbahn in Innsbruck. This is a single loop that goes up and then back over a hill. The climb itself is neither particularly long nor particularly steep but I found it very hard going. So much so that I had to invoke the coffee break facility on the second climb.

This is reflected in the stats on the brilliant Cycling Analytics site where my short-term stress is shown to already be higher than my long-term stress before the ride.

Oh, I’m now at Level 30 and have a nice new top to wear.
