Who will win the race? Pro cyclist woman or ex-hockey player?

Can a professional hockey player win this race against a Canadian female pro road cyclist??

Bets are on!

Laraque (who was a professional hockey player with the Montreal Canadiens) has been known to push 450w for over 20 minutes on a stationary bike to prove being on a vegetalian diet does not alter your strength in sports. Thoughts is that he will be very strong at the start and on the false flat but will slow down during the climbing part of the ride.

He's a heavy guy (was the "fighter" of the team). He is much more heavier than small framed Lex. Our prediction is that Lex will do this in around 5 minutes and him in 6m30s.

This is what the hill looks like. Camillien Houde Hill's ascent is 1.62 km long. Over this distance, you climb 72 heightmeters. The average percentage thus is 4.4 %. Pro racers are using this hill during International compets. Cyclists in the area test their fitness and use it to improve themselves.

Can't wait to read the results.
