Tips

Difficulty breakdown: This 8.3 km climb with 419 m of elevation gain, averaging 5%, is rated Category 1 and demands a sustained effort from bottom to top. The final is the hardest section, with 13% over KM 8.0-8.3, preceded by a 4% stretch over KM 7.5-8.0. The 9% ramp at KM 2.0-2.5 and the 8% ramp at KM 4.0-4.5 break your rhythm mid-climb. Only KM 4.5-5.0 (1%) and the descent over KM 7.0-7.5 (-2%) give you any real breathers.

Tips for managing your effort:

1. Pacing the start: don't go off the front over KM 0.5-1.0 at 8%. Keep an even effort so you reach KM 2.0-2.5 with plenty left in the tank.

2. Recovering on the false flats: use KM 4.5-5.0 at 1% and the descent over KM 7.0-7.5 to let your legs recover and get some fluids in.

3. Saving something for the final: keep a smooth cadence and a sensible gear over KM 8.0-8.3 at 13%, without blowing up too early.
