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.
