Covering some 30 kms and dropping over 2600m, you encounter every different type of terrain from snow and ice, to rocks and mud.If you don't start near the front you cannot win the race.

@zviaditemp Alpe d'Huez in France (race starts from top of the Pic Blanc mountain, qualification starts from place about 600-700m lower).

@plm3d if you are skilled enough the best bike is some light EN/FR bike with travel up to 140-150mm (talking about courses in Alpe d'Huez). Also qualifying course is very different from race course - qualifying course (about 20km) is much more DH (with many very juicy passages :)) but race course is much more like AM/EN with a few DH passages. On racing course you need much more pedaling power than on qualifying course. Light bike with telescopic seatpost will help you very much!
