Rio de Janeiro: the bike course

This is the bike course of the Ironman 70.3 Rio de Janeiro, in Brazil: 89.6 kilometres with 118 metres of climbing. The 90-kilometre bike leg of a half-distance triathlon (70.3).

It's almost flat, and that is exactly what makes it hard: you pedal the whole way, with no descent to recover on. Wind and an even pace decide your time.
