Tips

Climb difficulty breakdown: The Kunčina climb has a two-part profile. The first half (0-3 km) is very gentle, with gradients of 1% to 2%, which makes it a progressive leg-loosener. The real difficulty starts after the 3rd kilometre, where the gradient rises to 3%, then 5%, and even 7% between km 4.5 and km 5.0. The second section (3-6.2 km) is clearly harder, and it holds most of the elevation gain.

Tips for pacing the effort:

1. Pace management: Resist the temptation to go out too hard on the easy opening kilometres. Use them to settle into a good rhythm without wasting energy.

2. Anticipate the change of pace: Get ready mentally and physically for the ramp-up from km 3. Dropping into an easier gear a little before the 5-7% sections will help you keep a steady cadence.

3. Focused effort: The real effort is short (about 3 km), but it's sustained. Hold a steady power output through this middle section and don't go surging, or you'll burn out too early.
