Tips

Difficulty breakdown: At 43.5 km averaging 5.5%, this climb is a pure endurance test. Its difficulty lies in its length and in the steady gradients between 4% and 6% for most of the way. The sections at 7% (KM 35-36 and 37-38) and the 8% finish are tough, but the short descent between KM 29 and 31 gives you a crucial recovery window.

Pacing tips:

1. Managing your pace: Keep your power steady from the bottom so you have something left for the long haul. Don't go over the top in the first kilometres, where the gradient is easier.

2. Making the most of the descent: Use the 3 km of downhill (KM 29-31) to recover actively (spin easy) and get your head ready for the harder stretch ahead.

3. Saving something for the finish: Hold some energy in reserve for the last kilometres, which have the steepest gradients (6% and 8%), so you can keep a steady effort all the way to the summit.
