Your AI ride analysis

You came across the line in 1,894th out of 12,733 finishers, and the segment view is where it gets interesting. Impressively, you came out ahead of the M2 median on every measured segment of the day. The standout segment was Col du Galibier: you beat the M2 median there by roughly 27 minutes. There's no weakness to chase down this time; Col du Galibier in particular shows the kind of climbing that's worth repeating.
