The crux of the climb comes between km 1.0 and km 2.0, with gradients of 7% then 8%, followed by a sustained 6% section between km 3.0 and km 4.0. The profile is uneven, with a -2% descent at km 0.5-1.0 that gives you a breather before the steepest ramps.
Tips for the effort:
1. Settle into your rhythm from the start On the first 4% section (km 0.0-0.5), find a steady cadence so you still have legs left for the 8% ramp at km 1.5-2.0.
2. Recover on the easier stretches Use the descent at km 0.5-1.0 and the 2% section at km 4.0-4.5 to spin out your legs and catch your breath without losing your rhythm.
3. Save something for the finish Don't go too hard too early on the 5% section at km 4.5-5.0, because the last kilometre still demands power to finish strong.
