Tips

Difficulty breakdown: This 13 km climb with 545 m of elevation gain, at an average gradient of 4.2%, is rated Category 1 and demands good stamina. The first three kilometres, at 5% and 6%, set a firm tempo from the start, then the section between km 3 and km 8, almost flat or false flat, can break your rhythm. The hardest point is the stretch from km 9 to km 10 at 8%, followed by a 3 km section between 4% and 5% to the finish.

Tips for managing the effort:

1. Pace yourself early. Don't go too hard on the 5-6% section from km 0 to km 3, so you still have something in the tank for what comes next.

2. Recover on the false flat. Use the km 3 to km 8 section to drink, eat, and find a smooth rhythm in an easy gear.

3. Handle the 8% ramp. Tackle km 9-10 seated and steady, then hold a consistent cadence all the way to km 13, even on the 4-5% gradients.
