Difficulty breakdown: At 41.9 km averaging 6%, this HC climb is a real endurance test. The difficulty lies in its length and in the demanding sections, notably a kilometre at 10% in the final part and several stretches at 7-8% (KM 17, 21, 31, 37, 39). The two short descending sections (KM 23-24) give you a brief respite, but you need to keep spinning to recover actively.
Pacing tips:
1. Consistency: Hold a steady power, staying under 6% effort on the first, less steep kilometres to save your legs.
2. Anticipate the spikes: On sections above 7% (like KM 39 at 8%), ease off your pace slightly before the ramp to avoid blowing up.
3. Active recovery: Use the descending stretches (KM 23-24) to release the pressure on your legs while keeping a smooth, easy pedal stroke.
