Cripey, that’s a stout ride.
Channel your inner Eddy Merckx...how are you going to train for the climbing in Denmark?
Good luck!
I really have no idea how to do it besides just ride a lot of miles and ride often. I have a 215km gravel ride in April so that is a good midway training goal. We have some good hills in the west of Denmark and I will maybe go there a couple of times. Maybe a riding into a lot of headwind its equally as brutal.

LOL. Why are all Danes so obsessed with climbing??? :o
Tour de France is huge here so people have a fascination with the big mountains.

Some of the best climbers came out of Denmark. All (?) of them got busted for PEDs later. So you know what to do. :busted:

But come on, not every 'Bakke' has to have a Strava segment. And riding up and down the same hill with its 20 meters of elevation just 'to get your 500 m of climbing in' really shows that you have no life. ;)

Those tri bike tune ups normally consist of Elbow length Rubber gloves and disenfectant:) 26 mile run 110 bike ride and no stopping for bathrooms. Also drilling out at least 3 bolts due to corrosion.
