Climb analysis: This 2.9 km climb gets progressively harder. The first half (0-1.5 km) is steady at 6% to 8%, but the middle section between 1.5 and 2.0 km is the hardest, with 10% gradient. The top is very easy at 1%, a welcome breather.
How to manage the effort:
1. Save something in the tank for the 1.5 to 2.0 km section: Don't go out too hard. Pace yourself so you can tackle the 10% section without already being in the red.
2. Settle into a steady rhythm over the first kilometres: The 6% to 8% gradients are easier to climb by holding a steady cadence and power.
3. Use the easier gradient at the top to recover: The last 400 meters at 1% let you ease off before the summit.
