Shisa Shakedown takes you on a rolling ride through Neokyo and the surrounding Makuri regions, keeping riders on their toes with quick changes in elevation and vibrant scenery. The route flows through urban areas and quieter countryside, balancing challenging ascents with just enough flat to recover.

Punchy riders will find opportunities to attack on the sharp rollers, especially through the countryside sections where the undulating terrain can splinter the pack. Sprinters need to hang on and survive the climbs, while rouleurs might try to manage the pace and set up attacks near the end. Look for a mix of small breaks and re-grouping throughout the ride, with the finale favoring those who conserved energy for a final sprint or uphill punch.
