Tips

Difficulty analysis: This climb covers 3.6 km with an average gradient of 5% over 180 m of elevation gain, which puts it in the 3rd category. The real difficulty lies in the uneven profile: the 7% section (KM 0.0-0.5), the 8% section (KM 1.0-1.5) and the 8% section (KM 2.5-3.0) break up your rhythm. The descent from KM 2.0-2.5 (-5%) offers a brief respite, but you'll need to get the legs turning hard again before finishing on the 6% grade (KM 3.0-3.5).

Pacing tips:

1. Pace your start. The first 500 metres at 7% (KM 0.0-0.5) will tempt you to go out too hard, so stay at a steady effort and save something for later.

2. Make the most of the descent. On KM 2.0-2.5 (-5%), spin the legs out, recover and keep a smooth cadence to prepare for the ramp back up.

3. Manage the finish. After the 8% section at KM 2.5-3.0, shift onto a light gear and hold a steady cadence over KM 3.0-3.5 at 6%.
