Difficulty breakdown: This 3 km climb averages a tough 6.9%, rated Category 3. What makes it hard is the uneven profile: the first kilometre ramps progressively (5%-7%-8%), followed by a bit of a breather at km 2.0-2.5 (6%), before a steep finish at 9% over the last 500 metres.
Pacing tips:
1. Start controlled: Don't go too hard in the first 500m at 5%. Use that section to settle into your rhythm.
2. Save something for the finish: The last section is the steepest (9%). Keep some in the tank on the 6% kilometre (between 2.0 and 2.5 km) so you can attack the final ramp with composure.
3. Break it into sections: Think of the climb in three parts: an early push (0-1.5 km), a relative recovery (1.5-2.5 km), and a final effort where you empty the tank (2.5-3.0 km).
