Bergzeitfahren auf’s Grasberg

Bergzeitfahren auf’s Grasberg is a short hill-climb time trial in Waidhofen an der Ybbs, Austria, held in October. The entire race covers just 2.4 km, making it less about finding a rhythm and more about a single, sustained effort up toward Grasberg. The start is located in Waidhofen an der Ybbs, a town in Lower Austria. The race name directly indicates the climb: up to Grasberg. October conditions here are typically crisp, with average temperatures between 6°C and 14°C, around 40 mm of rain for the month, and frequent cloudy days. Therefore, pacing and appropriate clothing can be significant factors, even on this brief course.
