Difficulty breakdown: This Category 3 climb is moderately hard. The first 0.5 km (2%) and the last 300 metres (1%) are very manageable. The real difficulty lies in an almost continuous 2 km section (between 0.5 km and 2.5 km) with a steady 6-7% gradient, which makes it the demanding core of the climb.
Tips for managing your effort:
1. Start controlled: Use the first km (2% then 7% gradient) to find your rhythm without burning matches early on.
2. Steady pace on the middle section: Hold a constant effort over the 2 km at 6%. Avoid surges to save your legs.
3. Save something for the easy finish: The gradient drops to 1% over the last 300 metres. You can open up there and finish strong if you've managed your effort well up to that point.
