Tips

Difficulty analysis:

This Category 1 climb has an uneven profile that defines how hard it is. The 4% average gradient over 13.7 km is deceptive. The real test comes in two key sections: the first between km 4 and 5 (7% gradient) and the second, the nastier one, between km 10 and 11 (8% gradient). The km at 1% (km 5-6) gives you a welcome breather, but it can break your rhythm.

Tips for managing your effort:

1. Pacing: Don't get suckered by the relatively easy start. Save your legs for the two steep sections (7% and 8%). Use the 1% kilometre to recover actively without stopping.

2. Varying your effort: Anticipate the gradient changes. Ease off a touch on the 8% sections to keep a sustainable cadence, and push on the less steep parts (2-3%) to win back time without burning through your energy.
