Les Quatre Vents from Poustiau

At just 0.9km, Les Quatre Vents from Poustiau is short but deceptively intense — 50m of elevation packed into a brief, breathless effort. Averaging 5.4%, the road kicks to 10.8% at its steepest — a testing gradient that demands respect. It's over before the legs know what happened — a short, explosive effort where momentum is everything. Located in Auvergne, France.
