Volcano Flat Reverse brings a new twist to the Volcano Flat course, sending riders around the iconic volcano in the opposite direction. The terrain is still largely flat, but the reversed perspective gives a different approach to the gradual inclines and lava-filled scenery.
Similar to the forward version, this course will likely end in a sprint finish, with sprinters saving energy for a powerful final push. Rouleurs might try to break up the pack on the inclines, but the flat profile favors a pack sprint. Timing and positioning in the final kilometers are essential for a sprinters win.
