Pacing tips:
1. Pace yourself early. Don't go out too hard on the 10% section from km 0.0 to km 0.5. Save some energy for the 11% ramp that follows.
2. Make the most of the 7% section from km 1.5 to km 2.0. This is the most manageable stretch of the climb, so use it to recover and settle back into a steady rhythm.
3. Manage the final push from km 3.0 to km 3.4. Keep a smooth cadence and avoid surging on the 10% gradient. Dig into your reserves, but don't go into the red.
