The real difficulty is in the middle section, especially between km 2 and km 4 where the gradient hits 9% then 11%, before a second tough stretch between km 8 and km 9 at 9%. The descents at km 1-2 and km 4-5 do offer some valuable breathing room. The finish, rolling at 3% then 4%, shouldn't make you forget the fatigue building up in your legs.
How to ride it:
1. Start conservatively On the first kilometer at 4%, settle into a steady rhythm so you don't burn through your legs before the heart of the climb.
2. Recover on the descents Use the descents at km 1-2 (-2%) and km 4-5 (-1%) to spin out your legs and top up your fluids without losing time.
3. Manage the central section Stay seated through the 9% and 11% sections between km 2 and km 4, in a gear that lets you spin comfortably, and save some energy for the 9% ramp between km 8 and km 9.
