Difficulty breakdown: Jabuka from Osoje is a HC climb, covering 12.1 km with 757 m of elevation gain and an average gradient of 6.3%. The first five kilometres, with gradients between 4% and 6%, are no pushover but they let you find a steady rhythm. The real pain starts between km 5.0 and km 9.0, with 9%, then 10%, then a spike to 12% between km 7.0 and km 8.0. The final stretch alternates between 3% (km 9.0-10.0), 8% (km 10.0-11.0) and 1% (km 11.0-12.0), so you need to manage your efforts carefully right up to the top.
Tips for pacing:
1. Save something in the tank early on Over km 0.0-1.0 and km 1.0-2.0, ride a steady pace and don't blow up, because the key section comes at km 5.0-6.0.
2. Spin up the wall Between km 6.0 and km 8.0, where the gradient kicks up to 12%, stick with a light gear and a high cadence to keep your position on the bike.
3. Recover before the finish Use the false flat at km 9.0-10.0 at 3% to catch your breath, then keep enough legs for the 8% section at km 10.0-11.0 before the easier final kilometre at km 11.0-12.0.
