Climb difficulty breakdown: This 4th category climb is long (8.3 km) but not overly demanding, with a moderate average gradient of 2.5%. The challenge lies in its consistency: the first half is very steady (gradients of 1% to 3%), while the second half gets a bit steeper, peaking at 5% over 500m around the 5 km mark. This is more of an endurance effort than an explosive one.
Tips for managing the effort:
1. Keep a steady rhythm: Avoid surges. The low gradient lets you hold a high cadence and steady power over the whole climb.
2. Prepare for the steepest section: Around km 5.0-5.5, the gradient ramps up to 5%. Save some energy for this short, harder stretch so it doesn't catch you off guard.
3. Pace yourself over the distance: Length is the main challenge here. Spread your effort out so you're not running on empty in the final kilometres, even though the gradients stay manageable (3-4%).
