Climb analysis: Beixiashan from Pingshan is an HC climb of 5.3 km with 649 m of elevation gain, averaging 12.3%. The hard part is between km 1.5 and km 4.0, where the gradient stays steep, with a peak of 21% between km 1.5 and km 2.0. The start at 4% (km 0.0-0.5) is manageable, but don't blow up there. The final section, at 4% between km 4.5 and km 5.3, doesn't give you much real recovery.
Pacing tips:
1. Ride the start within yourself. On the km 0.0-0.5 section at 4%, keep a steady rhythm so you reach the foot of the steepest part with some legs left.
2. Deal with the 21% ramp. On the km 1.5-2.0 section, spin a higher cadence and select an easy enough gear rather than mashing the pedals.
3. Use the breather at km 3.0-3.5. On this 8% section, drink, eat and get your rhythm back before tackling the km 3.5-4.0 stretch at 16%.
