Difficulty breakdown: With 9 km for 340 m of elevation gain and an average gradient of 3.8%, this first-category climb is really decided in the second half. The first three kilometres are mostly rolling, with flat stretches at 0% such as KM 0.5-1.0 and KM 1.5-2.0. The real decisive section is between KM 6.0 and KM 8.5, where the gradients string together at 7%, 5%, 12%, 6% and 9%, making for a sustained and uneven effort.
Tips for managing your effort:
1. Pace yourself from the start: don't go off too hard on the opening kilometres. They're your chance to find a good rhythm before the ramp up to 7% at KM 3.5-4.0.
2. Save your legs for the middle section: between KM 5.0 and 6.5, where the gradients rise progressively from 4% to 7%, keep a steady cadence and avoid unnecessary surges.
3. Save something for the finale: tackle KM 7.0-7.5 at 12% with a light, spinning cadence, then use the nearly flat KM 8.5-9.0 at 1% to wind it up and empty the tank all the way to the top.
