<div class="bbWrapper">The Tumble is situated in <a href="http://www.climbbybike.com/cycling.asp?Region=Wales&RegionID=61" target="_blank" class="link link--external" rel="nofollow ugc noopener">Wales</a> . Starting from Govilon, the Tumble ascent is 6 km long. Over this distance, you climb 432 heightmeters. The average percentage thus is 7.2 %.<br />
<br />
there are some 10% climbs within the average spread across various sections of the climb.<br />
<br />

</blockquote>No need for Strava, you can calculate it, 6000 x 7.2 = 43200<br />
Using this table<br />
The minimum percent grade must be 3% or higher.<br />
Cat 4 >= 8000,<br />
Cat 3 >= 16000,<br />
Cat 2 >= 32000,<br />
Cat 1 >= 64000,<br />
HC >= 80000.<br />
Therefore a cat 2.</div>

It does seem the easiest way is just times the height gained in metres by 100, somehow seems to work<img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smls/wacko.gif" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":wacko:" title="Wacko :wacko:" data-shortname=":wacko:" /></div>
