Portugal • One-day Classic
A relentless Atlantic gale meets the explosive punch of Portuguese climbs, where the peloton is ground down by the salt-sprayed circuits of Figueira da Foz. It is a high-octane chess match on two wheels, balancing the raw power needed for coastal crosswinds with the razor-sharp agility required for the punishing ramps of Encosta de Maiorca.
