Tips

Climb analysis: This 7.6 km climb with 319 m of elevation gain averages 4.2%, which puts it in Category 1. The start is gentle up to km 1.0 (between 1% and 3%), but the section from km 1.5 to km 2.5 is very tough, with 10% followed by 8%. Between km 3.0 and km 5.0 the gradient stays steady, between 5% and 8%, before a more uneven finish alternating between descents and 4% gradients up to km 7.0.

Tips for managing your effort:

1. Don't go out too hard: use the first kilometres (km 0.0-1.0) to find a steady rhythm and save some legs for later.

2. Prepare for the 10% ramp: between km 1.5 and km 2.0, shift into an easier gear and keep a smooth cadence rather than mashing the pedals.

3. Recover on the descents: use the downhill sections (km 2.5-3.0 and km 5.5-6.5) to drink, eat and let your legs recover before the next push.
