Time Estimates
Famous for its inclusion as the finishing climb in La Flèche Wallonne, the Mur de Huy is a steep climb that is typically raced 3x by the men and 2x by the women.
While La Flèche Wallonne is an attritional race, it typically comes down to a reduced bunch attacking the Mur de Huy for the final time. Therefore, this is the slope where the race is decided.

It looks to be (in real life) about three minutes for the guys and a hair under four minutes for the gals. This is a great testing trial. Now, how to calculate a halo bike with three feather power ups?
Hopefully my 36×30 will do the trick. I visit this climb annualy whilst watching the race (la Flèche Wallonne). And every year again and again the pure steepness shocks me in awe.
This climb is brutal.
