Pacing tips:
1. Don't go out too hard. The easy early gradients are tempting, but a steady pace will get you to the steepest section with legs still fresh.
2. Ease off between km 5 and km 10. These 3 and 4% sections let you recover while keeping a smooth cadence before the hardest part.
3. Prepare for the 8% at km 11. Shift to a smaller chainring before the section, hold a steady cadence, then use the 2% stretch at km 16 to kick back up.
