Difficulty breakdown: This climb covers 1.5 km with an average gradient of 3.5% and 54 m of elevation gain, which makes it a short and fairly manageable ascent. All the real difficulty is in the first 800 metres, where the gradient hits 11% between km 0.4 and km 0.6, then stays at 8% until km 0.8. After that, the road is almost flat rolling, with gradients of 1 to 2%, giving you a chance to recover before the finish.
Tips for the effort:
1. Pace the start. On the km 0.0-0.2 section at 4%, settle into a steady rhythm and don't blow up, because the key section comes up quickly.
2. Prepare for the 11% ramp. Shift to an easier gear before km 0.4, stay in the saddle and keep a smooth cadence to save your legs.
3. Attack again after km 0.8. Use the near-flat section to build speed back up in a bigger gear, then push on to the top.
