Climb analysis: At 9.1 km with 581 m of elevation gain and an average gradient of 6.4%, this climb is rated HC and demands a solid level of fitness. The profile is uneven: the first half alternates between rolling sections and moderate grades, then KM 4.0-5.0 concentrates the hardest stretch with 15% followed by 13%. The final third remains tough, with 10% (KM 7.5-8.0) and 12% (KM 8.0-8.5).
Pacing advice:
1. Keep an even pace from the start. The opening kilometres (KM 0.0-1.0) are almost flat, which tempts you to go out too hard. Hold a steady cadence to save your legs.
2. Prepare for the KM 4.0 to KM 5.0 section. Shift into an easy enough gear as you approach the 15% of KM 4.0-4.5, and favour a smooth cadence over out-of-the-saddle surges.
3. Manage your effort for the finish. Use the short respite at KM 6.0-6.5 (-1%) to recover, and keep something in the tank for the ramps of KM 7.5-8.5 before the final 6% (KM 8.5-9.0).
