Tips

Difficulty breakdown: This 3rd category climb (7.5 km at 3.9%) builds up gradually. The first third (0-2.5 km) is very manageable, with gradients of 2% to 4%. It gets harder in the second third, with a steeper section between 2.5 and 3.0 km at 5%. The final part, from 5.5 to 7.5 km, is the most demanding, with sustained gradients of 5% to 6% over the last two kilometres.

How to manage your effort:

1. Start easy: Use the first 2.5 km, which are not steep, to find your rhythm without burning matches too early.

2. Save something for the finish: Keep some legs in reserve for the last 2 km, the steepest part at 6%. Ease off a bit on the 5% ramp at km 2.5 so you hit this final section with fresh legs.

3. Keep a steady rhythm: Hold a constant cadence on sections with similar gradients (e.g., the 4% stretches between 1.5-2.5 km and 5.5-7.5 km) to avoid surges.
