Difficulty breakdown: This 6.5 km climb has a very uneven profile. The difficulty is concentrated in three steep sections: a brutal stretch of 8% then 10% between 1.5 and 2.5 km, followed by a welcome breather, then another wall at 8% and 7% between 3.5 and 4.5 km. The descent at km 5.5 is an unexpected tactical element.
How to manage the effort:
1. Pace yourself: Don't go too hard in the first few kilometers. Save something in the tank for the two main walls (around 2 km and 4 km).
2. Make the most of the flat sections: The 1% sections (km 2.5-3.5 and 5.0-6.0) are crucial for recovering and refueling before the tougher climbing.
3. Plan for the descent: The short downhill at km 5.5 lets you ease off the pressure and get ready for the final push up to the finish.
