After 80 km there will be a long get on Doushi Road with an absolute rise of 1000 m. In the wake of arriving at Lake Yamanakako in Yamanashi and intersection the Kagosaka Pass there will be a quick 15 km drop. From here the courses are distinctive for people.
After the drop, the men’s race will head towards the lower slants of Mount Fuji, Japan’s most noteworthy mountain, where they will go up a 14.3 km long move with a 6.0% normal slope. The riders will at that point head to the Fuji Speedway segment, where they will cross the end goal twice before entering the last piece of the race, which incorporates the Mikuni Pass top at around 30 km to go.
