Two moments

1The climb

From 16.1 km to 20.7 km

4.6 km · +157 m at 3.4% · 13.7 km/h · 131 bpm, peaking at 138

You climbed Kanyamiyoka at a steady 14 km/h but your heart rate rose to 131 — well above the rest of the ride — which suggests you were working harder than endurance pace to hold that speed.

2The fast stretch

From 21.2 km to 23.1 km

1.9 km · -2.8% average · 38.1 km/h · 122 bpm, peaking at 128

At Ruringanizo you held 38 km/h on a shallow descent without lifting your heart rate above endurance pace, which meant you were doing almost all the work with gravity and position rather than pedalling.
