2The climb

From 49.7 km to 51.4 km

1.7 km · +167 m at 9.8% · 6.4 km/h · 148 bpm, peaking at 169

Your heart rate climbed as you hit the gradient near Weston Subedge, and given you were two hours into the ride, that elevated reading likely reflects the compounding effect of the day’s duration as much as the steepness of the climb.
