Tips

Difficulty breakdown: At 14.6 km for 711 m of elevation gain and an average gradient of 4.9%, this Category 1 climb stands out mostly for its length and consistency. Almost every kilometre sits between 4% and 7%, with no real recovery stretch. The hardest sections are between km 4 and km 6, then between km 12 and km 14, both at 7%.

Tips for managing your effort:

1. Pace yourself from the bottom. The first kilometres at 4% tempt you to go out too hard. Save some in the tank for what's coming, and use the 1% section between km 1 and km 2 to recover.

2. Prepare for the 7% pitches. Between km 4 and km 6, run a gear you can grind comfortably and keep a smooth cadence. Don't mash the pedals.

3. Refuel before the final push. Use the 2% stretch between km 8 and km 9 to drink and eat, so you reach the 7% section between km 12 and km 14 in good shape.
