The real pain is between KM 5.0 and KM 8.0, where the gradient ranges from 10% to 16% over 3 km with no real respite. The descents from KM 1.0 to KM 2.0 give you a decent breather, but don't let them make you forget the finale.
Climbing tips:
1. Pace yourself from the bottom. KM 0.0-0.5 already sits at 10%, so start easy and save something for the final block.
2. Make the most of the downhill sections from KM 1.0 to KM 2.0. These stretches at -3% and -5% let you turn the pedals over again and get some water or food in.
3. Hold a steady rhythm through the KM 5.0-8.0 block. Keep a smooth cadence on the 15% and 16% ramps (KM 5.5 to 6.5), and save your legs for the 14% section at KM 7.0-7.5.
