Tips for managing your effort:
1. Pace yourself from the bottom: The first section (0-1km) alternates between 5% and 7%. Don't go out too hard on the first kilometer or you'll blow up early.
2. Prepare for the two 7% sections: Ease off a touch before the steeper bits (around 0.5km and 2.0km) so you hit them with something left in the tank.
3. Hold a steady rhythm: The consistent 6% gradients on the second half let you find a good tempo and finish the climb strong.
