Climb difficulty analysis: This 1st category climb is genuinely hard because of its uneven profile. The average gradient of 6% over 10.3 km is deceptive: there are four demanding sections at 8-9%, including a final kilometer at 9%. The flat kilometer from 6.0-7.0 at 0% gives you a short breather, but the succession of gradients calls for disciplined pacing.
Pacing tips:
1. Spread your effort: Don't go over the limit in the first kilometers at 7-8%. Use the flat section at KM 6 to recover actively (spin easy) before the last four hard kilometers.
2. Save something for the finish: Keep some reserve for the last kilometer (9%), the steepest part of the climb. Shift to an easier gear as soon as you hit KM 9 to keep a steady cadence.
