Difficulty analysis: This Category 1 climb is genuinely hard, with a very uneven profile. The average gradient of 6.7% over 4.4 km is deceptive: the climb is split in two by a very demanding central section (KM 2.0-3.0 at 10-11%), with much easier stretches before and after it.
Tips for the effort:
1. Pacing: Start easy over the first kilometres (2-7%) to save your legs for the 11% wall.
2. Focus on the middle section: The decisive effort comes between KM 2.0 and 3.0. Anticipate the change of pace and mentally prepare yourself for a hard effort through this stretch.
3. Active recovery: Make the most of the easing gradient between KM 3.0 and 4.0 (2-4%) to recover without fully backing off before the 8% finish.
