Difficulty analysis: This hors catégorie climb is genuinely hard, with two critical sections: a kilometer at 12% (KM 4.0-5.0) and another at 11% (KM 7.0-8.0). The central section (KM 4.0-8.0) is the most demanding, while a welcome breather comes at KM 9.0-10.0 (1% gradient).
Pacing advice:
1. Manage your pace before the tough bits: Keep an eye on the two steep sections (around 4 km and 7 km) and ease off in the kilometers before them, so you hit those ramps with plenty left in the tank.
2. Make the most of the breather: Use the easy kilometer (around 9 km) to recover actively (spin the legs, drink up) before the last steady stretch at 6-7%.
3. Hold a steady rhythm: The 6% average gradient is deceptive. Don't overcook it on the easier early percentages; keep your power even over the whole climb.
