Difficulty breakdown: This 4.3 km climb with 187 m of elevation gain averages 4.3%, which puts it in Cat 2 on a relatively short profile. The real test comes in the first two kilometres, where the road ramps up to 10% over the 0.0-0.5 km and 0.5-1.0 km sections, nearly 100 m of climbing in one block. After that, the route alternates between rolling stretches (1.0-1.5 km at 2%, 3.5-4.0 km at 0%) and harder sections (1.5-2.0 km at 6%, 2.5-3.0 km at 4%), before a final 4% push over 4.0-4.3 km.
Tips for managing your effort:
1. Don't go out too hard. The first 1,000 metres at 10% catch out a lot of climbers: pace yourself and save something for later.
2. Make the most of the flat bits. On 1.0-1.5 km (2%) and 3.5-4.0 km (0%), turn the pedals over, get your breath back and recover before the 6% section from 1.5-2.0 km.
3. Manage the finish. The 4.0-4.3 km section at 4% is short: stay in a comfortable gear and only go for it once the summit is in sight.
