Grand Prix Cycliste de Montréal
🚴 UCI
🌍 INT
Mount Royal’s Camillien‑Houde and Polytechnique climbs give Montréal a punchy, almost Ardennes‑like feel.
Accumulated elevation across many laps creates an attritional selection that drops pure sprinters and rewards riders with deep aerobic reserves.
Late attacks over the final ascent can stick if hesitation creeps in; otherwise, a reduced‑group sprint crowns the most complete rider on the day. Weather and pacing over the middle laps often prove decisive.
