Tips

Difficulty analysis: This Category 3 climb is moderately hard. The main challenge is the tough opening, with the first three kilometres at 5-6% gradient, accounting for more than half of the total elevation gain. The middle section (KM 1.5 to 3.5) is much easier (1-3%), giving you a welcome breather before a short ramp back up to 5% near the top.

Tips for managing your effort:

1. Pace yourself from the bottom: Resist the urge to go out too hard over the first 1.5 km of steep road. Save something in the tank for the finish.

2. Active recovery: Use the flatter middle section (KM 1.5-3.5) to bring your heart rate down and get some fuel in without losing too much speed.

3. Prepare for the finale: Get your head and legs ready before KM 3.5 so you can tackle the final significant 5% section calmly.
