Tips

Climb analysis: This 2.9 km climb is a moderate test, Category 3, with an average gradient of 7%. Its main difficulty is how uneven it is: two tough sections at 9% (at the start and in the middle) demand power, separated by easier stretches at 4% and 5% that offer a bit of recovery.

Tips for pacing yourself:

1. Start controlled: The first ramp at 9% hits right away. Don't blow up on the opening metres. Get into a gear that lets you find your rhythm.

2. Active recovery: Use the easier stretches (KM 0.5-1.0 and 2.0-2.5) to ease off the intensity and get your breathing back under control without losing too much speed.

3. Save something for the finish: The last section (2.5-2.9 km) at 8% requires holding some energy in reserve. Manage your effort on the previous kilometre (5%) so you tackle the final stretch with composure.
