This is a great idea - I love the maximise hills option :) It reminds me of one of our clubs TT routes which featured 1100M (3600ft) of climbing in 28miles, this would be great for generating some similar routes I reckon.

Ti is difficult to weld - there are a lot of cracked Ti frames out there - often at the welds :( A shame as they (can) look great.

I don't think they ride Eau Rouge, but Spa is sometimes used for some elite level Cyclocross: https://www.velonews.com/news/cyclocross/gallery-spa-francor... The grass bank climb is incredibly steep.

I know that Castle Coombe has regular bicycle races - both criteriums and time trials. Pretty sure many of the circuits do, as its a good way to use the track and get some cash in, as they are often regulated in the number of motor races due to noise issues.

Yes - very true. I race timetrials and keeping a stable aero position requires effort and practice but it's worth it as the gains from aero improvements can be huge.

There is also no mention of fit changes. Changes in crank length, saddle height, hip angles etc all can have quite considerable effects on efficiency
