Difficulty breakdown: The 古仁格勒达坂 covers 28.5 km for 1042 m of elevation gain, an average gradient of 3.7%, which earns it a Cat 1 classification. The real difficulty lies in its structure: the first 13 km are steady, between 3% and 6%, then the stretch from KM 13.0 to KM 22.0, at 1 or 2%, offers a deceptive breather. The second half is the toughest, with a series of 6% ramps from KM 22.0 to KM 26.0, followed by the steepest section, at 7%, between KM 27.0 and KM 28.0.
Tips for pacing your effort:
1. Pace yourself from the bottom. On the 4% slopes between KM 0.0 and KM 1.0, keep it below your threshold to save something for later.
2. Recover on the flat. Between KM 14.0 and KM 19.0, at 1%, spin at a steady cadence and use the time to drink and fuel up.
3. Keep a smooth rhythm in the final push. To tackle the 6% from KM 22.0 to KM 26.0, then the 7% from KM 27.0 to KM 28.0, run an easy gear and avoid jerky surges.
