Difficulty analysis: This HC climb covers 17.8 km and is genuinely hard, with a demanding average gradient of 6.7%. The difficulty lies in the uneven profile: several sections at 8-9% (KM 1-3, 4-5, 8-9, 14-15) alternate with relative respites at 4-5%, so you have to constantly adjust your effort.
Tips for managing the effort:
1. Pace your start: The first 3 km (4%, 8%, 9%) get progressively harder. Don't go out too hard, and find a sustainable rhythm from the very beginning.
2. Manage the variations: Use the gentler sections (KM 3-4, 9-10, 11-14) to actively recover before the 8-9% sections.
3. Save something for the end: The final kilometres (KM 14-15 at 8%) are a significant last test before a more even finish. Keep some energy in reserve for this stretch.
