Difficulty breakdown: The climb of 大岚垭 from Zouma covers 7.3 km at an average gradient of 4.9% with 354 m of elevation gain, which earns it its HC rating. The real difficulty, though, is concentrated in the last third: from km 5.5 to the finish, the gradient stays between 15% and 11% over 1.8 km. The first kilometers, between 5% and 7%, are already demanding, but it's the final ramp that will decide things.
Tips for managing the effort:
1. Nail the start. On km 0.0 to 1.5, where the gradient varies between 5% and 7%, ride at a sustainable effort so you reach the foot of the final wall with something left in the tank.
2. Recover on the descents and flat sections. Make the most of km 1.5 to 2.5 and 3.5 to 4.5, where it's slightly downhill, plus the flat from km 2.5 to 3.5, to drink, eat and get your breathing back under control.
3. Tackle the final in an easy gear. On km 5.5 to 7.3, where the gradient goes from 15% to 11%, keep a steady cadence, avoid sudden surges and stay firmly in the saddle.
