Your AI ride analysis

Your pacing held up well overall, but slipped in one place: your toughest stretch was the Télégraphe → Pied du Galibier (Valloire), where you lost about 24 minutes to the M8 median (about 39 minutes versus the median's about 15 minutes). Even your strongest relative segment, the Start → Pied de la Croix de Fer, still left you about 1 minute behind the M8 median. Against the whole field rather than just your category, that same Télégraphe → Pied du Galibier (Valloire) split was about 26 minutes slower than the overall median, confirming it as the day's weak point. The Télégraphe → Pied du Galibier (Valloire) is the one rematch worth having; about 24 minutes is a realistic amount to take back with focused prep.
