Difficulty breakdown: A beyond category climb, demanding because of its long distance (9.2 km) and high average gradient (7.6%). The difficulty lies in the repeated steep sections (four stretches at 11-12%), especially at the start of the climb and in the final kilometer, which break your rhythm.
How to manage the effort:
1. Start controlled: The first 2 km are very steep (11%). Don't go out too hard, or you'll burn through your energy reserves too early.
2. Make the most of the breaks: The short descent at KM 1.0-1.5 (-6%) and the sections at 5-6% (KM 4.0-4.5, KM 5.0-5.5) are your chances to recover and ease off the cadence a little.
3. Save something for the end: Prepare for the final wall (11% at KM 8.0-8.5) by pacing yourself through the steadier middle section (6-8%).
