Climb analysis: This 25.6 km climb is a sustained effort with a demanding average gradient of 6.1%. The profile is very uneven, alternating steep stretches (notably the kilometre at 12% and several sections at 8-9%) with short descents or flat sections (KM 10-11 and KM 18-19, KM 20-21) that break the rhythm.
Pacing tips:
1. Settle into a rhythm from the start: The first kilometres are steep (6% to 9%). Don't go over the top trying to match the pace of others. Find a tempo you can hold for the long haul.
2. Anticipate the gradient changes: Use the slightly downhill sections (around KM 10 and 20) to recover actively without losing speed, and get your head ready for the re-attacks on the parts above 8%.
3. Manage your effort through the finish: The gradient stays consistent over the last 5 kilometres (4% to 7%), despite one brief respite. Keep a steady cadence to avoid blowing up at the end.
