Difficulty breakdown: The Gardaneh-ye Bajgir is a demanding Category 1 climb, covering 6.8 km at an average gradient of 6.4% for 440 m of elevation gain. The real pain is in the second half, with 8% between KM 4.5 and KM 5.0, then 13% from KM 5.0 to 5.5, the hardest section. KM 2.0-2.5 at 9% is also very steep, while the flat section at KM 1.5-2.0 and the slight descent at KM 2.5-3.0 give you a few moments to recover.
Tips for pacing yourself:
1. Get your pacing right from the start In the first few kilometres, between 4% (KM 0.0-0.5) and 6% (KM 0.5-1.0), settle into a steady rhythm so you still have some reserve left for the 8% and 9% ramps.
2. Make the most of the flat and the descent At KM 1.5-2.0 (0%) and KM 2.5-3.0 (-4%), recover by keeping your gearing light, your legs loose and your breathing calm.
3. Tackle the punchy section methodically For KM 5.0-5.5 at 13%, shift into an easy gear, stay seated, and hold a steady cadence all the way to KM 6.5-6.8 at 8%.
