Climb analysis: This 3rd category climb covers 3.2 km for 167 m of elevation gain, with an average gradient of 5.2%. The real difficulty is in the first 1.5 km, where the gradient hits 8% (km 0.0-0.5), 10% (km 0.5-1.0), then 9% (km 1.0-1.5). You're going to have to work hard from the bottom. After that, km 1.5-2.0 drops slightly (-2%), then the road ramps back up to 5% (km 2.0-2.5) before easing off to 2% (km 2.5-3.0).
Pacing tips:
1. Pace your start. On the 8% section between km 0.0 and 0.5, don't go out too hard. Energy you burn early will come back to haunt you later on the climb.
2. Keep a steady cadence. On the 10% stretch from km 0.5 to 1.0, pick a gear you can spin smoothly without surging, and stay in the saddle if your cadence allows it.
3. Recover on the small descents. Use the dip between km 1.5 and 2.0 to grab a drink and let your legs loosen up, then gradually pick up the pace for the finish on the 5% ramp from km 2.0 to 2.5.
