Tips

Difficulty analysis: The Bahani from Itsandra is a 1st category climb of 8.9 km with 583 m of elevation gain, at an average gradient of 6.5%. The start is deceptive: the KM 0.5-1.0 section already hits 14%, the steepest stretch of the profile. The second half is the hardest, with a run of 7%, 9%, 8% then 10% gradients between KM 6.0 and KM 8.0, with no real respite. The 4% sections, such as KM 1.0 to KM 2.0 or KM 5.0 to KM 5.5, offer a few chances to recover.

Pacing tips:

1. Ease into it At KM 0.5-1.0 at 14%, don't go out too hard. Keep a steady rhythm so you reach the longer climb with legs still fresh.

2. Manage the finale Between KM 6.0 and KM 8.0, stay seated, keep a steady cadence and avoid surges to limit muscle fatigue.

3. Recover on the flatter bits Use the 4% sections from KM 1.0 to KM 2.0 and from KM 5.0 to KM 5.5 to get your breathing back and get ready for the harder ramps.
