Difficulty breakdown:
This 19.4 km hors catégorie climb is tough because of its 1205m of elevation gain and several steep sections. The main challenge is the five kilometres between 9% and 10% (KM 1-4 and KM 7, 10), which demand careful effort management. The short slightly downhill section at KM 5.0-6.0 (-1%) gives you a brief respite, but the sustained average gradient of 6.2% over the whole climb makes this an endurance test.
Tips for managing your effort:
1. Pace yourself from the start: The first kilometres are steep (9%). Don't go out too hard, and find a gear that lets you hold a steady effort.
2. Make the most of the dip: Use the kilometre of negative gradient (KM 5-6) to recover actively by easing off a little without stopping pedalling.
3. Save something for the end: The gradient stays between 3% and 6% over the final kilometres. Keeping a steady pace from the bottom will keep you from blowing up in the last part.
