Pacing advice:
1. Measured start: Don't burn yourself out on that first kilometre at 10%. Settle into a controlled rhythm so you get through the tough section without blowing up.
2. Steady rhythm: Once the steepest part is behind you, find a sustainable tempo on the long 4-5% stretches to hold a constant power output.
3. Save something for the finish: The gradient eases off noticeably after 6.5 km. Keep some legs in reserve so you can accelerate over the final 700 metres, which are almost flat, if you need to.
