Tips

Difficulty breakdown: This Category 1 climb is moderate in total distance (10.7 km at 5.4%), but its profile is what makes it tactical. The difficulty is concentrated in three key sections: a steep 3 km stretch between km 2.0 and 5.0 (7% average), followed by a respite at km 6.0-7.0 (3%), before a final wall at km 7.0-8.0 (8%), the hardest part of the climb.

Pacing tips:

1. Managing the gradient changes: Save some energy in the early kilometres (4%) so you hit the 7% section (km 2-5) without already being over your limit.

2. Making the most of the easier gradient: Use the easing at km 6-7 (3%) to recover actively (spin the legs lightly) before the maximum effort at km 8 (8%).

3. Saving something for the finish: After the peak of difficulty, the last 3 km (4% and 3%) are rolling; hold a steady rhythm to finish strong without blowing up.
