Difficulty breakdown: This Cat 1 climb covers 5.4 km with 307 m of elevation gain, at an average gradient of 5.6%. The hard part is between km 1.5 and km 2.5, where the gradient goes from 9% (km 1.5-2.0) to 11% (km 2.0-2.5). The final push, from km 5.0 to km 5.4, ramps back up to 11%, so you need to save something for the end.
Pacing tips:
1. Don't go out too hard. The first 500 metres at 6% will tempt you to attack, so settle into a steady rhythm from the bottom.
2. Make the most of the breaks. The flat section at 0% from km 0.5-1.0 and the descending stretch at -2% from km 2.5-3.0 are your chance to recover and get some fluids in.
3. Manage the key section. Hit km 2.0-2.5 at 11% with a light, smooth cadence and controlled effort, so you still have something left for the steep kicker from km 5.0-5.4.
