Climb analysis: The Puntallana climb is brutally hard, with an average gradient of 16.5% over 2.2 km. The real pain is concentrated in the first three kilometres, where the gradient stays steady between 18% and 22%, meaning close to 300m of climbing packed into a very short distance. The final section (2.0-2.2 km) at 4% gives you a welcome breather.
How to manage the effort:
1. Pacing: Start very easy or you'll blow up in the first few hundred metres at 22%. Find a steady rhythm you can hold on the 18-20% stretch.
2. Gearing: Run the softest gear you've got (e.g. small chainring, big cog) to keep your cadence up despite the savage gradients.
3. Mental focus: Break the climb into chunks using the kilometre markers. Focus on one segment at a time, with the 4% final section as your target for recovering.
