Difficulty analysis: This climb has two distinct parts. The first 3 km are relatively gentle (average gradient of 3%), serving as a warm-up. The real difficulty starts at KM 3.5 with an extremely demanding section: nearly 4 km at an average gradient of 12-13%, peaking at 17% between KM 6.5 and 7.0. This section accounts for most of the climbing and justifies the Hors Catégorie classification.
Tips for pacing the effort:
1. Managing your pace: Use the start (KM 0-3) to find a steady rhythm without burning matches. Anticipate the sudden jump in gradient around 3.5 km.
2. Surviving the hard middle: On the central section (KM 3.5-7.0), focus on keeping an acceptable cadence. Avoid surges and save your legs for the 17% ramp.
3. Enjoying the finish: The last 1500m (8% then 4%) offer a welcome breather to pick up the pace and finish strong if you've managed your effort well.
