Difficulty breakdown: The climb of 茶籽岭 from Xiacun is a beyond-category ascent of 10.3 km with 620 m of elevation gain, averaging 6%. The main challenge is consistency: from km 2 to km 9, the gradient stays between 5% and 7%, with no real respite. The flat section from km 1 to km 2 offers a brief breather, but it doesn't make up for the length of the effort that follows.
Tips for pacing yourself:
1. Save your legs from the off On the first few kilometres, from 0 to 1 km at 2% and then across the flat section from km 1 to 2, ride at an easy pace so you arrive fresh at the steepest part.
2. Hold a steady cadence Between km 3 and km 9, where the gradient varies between 6% and 7%, pick a gear that lets you keep a smooth, even cadence without going into the red.
3. Save something for the finish From km 9 to 10 the gradient drops to 4%, before a final 300 m stretch at 5%, perfect for kicking on again if you've managed your effort up to that point.
