The Tour of Guangxi will be the final World Tour event of the season; taking place between the 15th and 20th of October. The peloton will be in China for what is the final stage-race of the season, but one that will still be important to many. We preview stage 6.

The final day of the race is already a familiar one, taking place in the city of Nanning. This is an interesting day of racing, on paper seemingly a regular day for the sprinters but the profile doesn’t quite show how steep the climb is.

Five laps of a circuit on a short day of racing, only 133 kilometers. In each lap, a steep 1.4-kilometer long climb will be ridden and it averages over 11% average gradient. It’s possible to do serious damage here and it comes with 19 kilometers to go. The GC riders will be on their toes, and it’s hard to know whether this will end up in a reduced bunch sprint, GC day or anything inbetween. Also read
