Two moments

1The steep pitch

From 32.1 km to 32.2 km

0.1 km · +12.1% average · 9.5 km/h · 148 bpm, peaking at 156

That steep pitch out of Lower Winchendon kicked your heart rate up to tempo even though you were grinding through it at 10 km/h, which suggests you were working harder than the gradient alone required—worth a look at whether you had the gearing right.

2The descent

From 35.5 km to 37.0 km

1.5 km · -5.5% average · 38.1 km/h · 129 bpm, peaking at 150

You came down the Ashendon descent at 38 km/h, which is proper quick for a 6% gradient and puts you well into the descending effort at a point where you'd already covered half the ride.
