Difficulty analysis: This HC climb is extremely demanding, covering 43.9 km with 2,926m of elevation gain. The difficulty is compounded by uneven gradients: a very punchy opening section (KM 7-14 with 10% and 13% ramps) is followed by a long 20 km plateau at moderate gradients (2-4%), before the climb steepens again over the last 4 km (7 to 10%).
Pacing advice:
1. Pace yourself strictly over the first 15 km, especially on the 10-13% sections, to avoid blowing up before the easier part.
2. Make the most of the long stretch of easier gradients (KM 15-35) to recover actively by spinning an easy gear and not forcing it.
3. Save something for the end: the gradients kick back up hard after KM 39, so you'll need power left in the legs.
