Tips

Climb analysis: This Category 1 climb is a sustained but uneven effort. The first half (KM 0-4) is the hardest, with a run of 6-7% gradients. There are two notable breathers, between KM 4.5 and 5.0 (3%) and at KM 6.0-6.5 (3%), before the gradient returns to 5-7% until the easier finish.

Pacing tips:

1. Start steady: Resist the urge to go too hard in the first steep kilometres. Save something in the tank for the 7% sections.

2. Make the most of the breathers: Use the two short 3% sections (around 4.5km and 6.0km) to recover by easing off the pace slightly, without coming off the pedals.

3. Managing the final kilometre: The gradient eases gradually over the last kilometre. This is the time to start spending the energy you've saved, if you've paced yourself well.
