2. Make use of the flatter sections Use the 6% sections (km 0.5-1.0 and 3.0-3.5) to recover, drink, and get your position back before going again.
3. Save something for the finish Hold some energy in reserve for the final 12% (km 4.0-4.2), staying seated and running a gear light enough to keep a steady cadence.
