2. Keep a steady cadence on the 8% ramps. On km 1.0-1.5, 3.0-3.5 and 5.0-5.5, drop into an easier gear and stay seated if you can, so you keep a smooth, consistent cadence.
3. Make the most of the flat at km 7.5-8.0. This almost flat section (0%) is your chance to recover and get some fuel in before the final kilometers at 5% on km 8.5-9.5.
