This portion of BikeRaceInfo's site is dedicated to paved climbs all over the world. We are currently adding deeper data to the sections devoted to French and Italian climbs.
Information on Climbs and Races in the following areas:
The purpose of the KOM site is to provide a resource with information about about paved road cycling climbs (including big hills, mountain passes, gaps, cols, and peaks) and races throughout the world.
BikeRaceInfo inherited the KOM site from our good friends at CycleItalia. It no longer fit CycleItalia's purposes. But, since so much work had gone into it, we thought it a terrible shame to lose this valuable and interesting data. Larry at CycleItalia kindly sent it to us. So now, we have it. It's not complete, by any means, but there is a wealth of useful information and we're adding to it all the time. Enjoy!
