Difficulty breakdown: This 9 km climb has an uneven profile with an average gradient of a brutal 7.9%. The challenge lies in its three steep sections: a first wall between km 2.0 and 3.5 (13%-14%), a punchy stretch between km 6.0 and 8.5 (7%-10%), and a hard finish at 11%. The flat and descending parts (KM 0-0.5, 5.0-6.0) give you brief breathers but break your rhythm.
Pacing tips:
1. Ride at a steady pace by targeting a power/effort level that matches the average gradient (around 8%) so you don't blow up on the 13-14% ramps.
2. Make the most of the easier sections (KM 5.0-6.0 at 0% and -4%) to recover actively without slowing down too much, so you tackle the second half with something left in the tank.
3. Save something for the last kilometre at 11%, the steepest part of the climb, and avoid going too hard too early on the 8-10% slopes leading up to it.
