Pacing tips:
1. Save your legs at the start: in the first kilometres (km 0.0-1.0, between 4% and 8%), ride at a steady, moderate effort so you arrive at the steepest section with something left in the tank.
2. Keep a steady cadence on the wall: from km 2.0 to km 3.5, pick a gear you can turn over comfortably, stay seated, and avoid surging to conserve energy.
3. Make the most of the km 4.0-4.5 breather: drink, eat, and recover your breath on the 1% section so you tackle the 10% stretch from km 4.5 to km 6.5 in good shape.
