Difficulty analysis: With 5180m of elevation gain over 108km, this HC climb is extremely long and demanding. The 5% average gradient is misleading: the profile is very uneven, with sections at 22% (KM 6-7) and 10% (KM 105-106), but also several significant descents (KM 48-51 at -6%). The real difficulty lies in the duration of the effort and in managing the constant changes of rhythm this lumpy profile demands.
Pacing tips:
1. Spin along the false flats: The many kilometres between 1% and 3% (KM 1-3, 11-12, 20-22, etc.) should be ridden at a steady pace to save your legs.
2. Prepare for the steep sections: The stretches above 7% (KM 44-46, 93-95, 100-106) call for shifting to an easier gear before you hit them. Don't blow up on KM 6-7 at 22%.
3. Use the descents to recover: The downhill sections (KM 48-51 in particular) are crucial for easing off, fueling up and recovering before the hard parts.
