Difficulty analysis: This HC climb is genuinely hard because of its uneven profile. The difficulty is concentrated in three phases: a very punchy start (KM 0-2: 9-10%), a more rolling central section with moderate gradients (3-7%), and a brutal finish (KM 13-14: 10%) before the last few hundred metres at 6%.
Pacing advice:
1. Manage the start: Resist the urge to go too hard over the first 2 steep kilometres. Settle into a steady rhythm to save your legs for later.
2. Use the easier sections: Take advantage of KM 6 to 9 and KM 11 (1-4% gradients) to recover by easing off the intensity a little while keeping a good cadence.
3. Save something for the finale: Keep some energy in the tank for KM 13-14 at 10%, the steepest section after the start. Get into an easier gear before you hit it so you can hold your cadence.
