Difficulty breakdown: At 1.3 km for 53 m of elevation gain and an average gradient of 4.2%, Boerenallee is a short climb but a tough one, rated Category 4. The first section (KM 0.0-0.4) at 3% is rolling and gives you a chance to get your legs going. The real work starts between KM 0.4 and 1.0, where the gradient ramps up to 6% and then 7% over nearly 600 m, gaining about 37 m. KM 1.0-1.2, at 2%, gives you a bit of respite before the finish.
Tips for managing your effort:
1. Don't go out too hard over the first kilometres. On KM 0.0-0.4 at 3%, ride at a controlled effort so you still have something left for the steepest part.
2. Manage your cadence on the 7% section. Between KM 0.6 and KM 1.0, pick a gear you can spin comfortably and keep a steady cadence, switching between seated and standing as needed.
3. Make the most of the flat part at KM 1.0-1.2. The 2% gradient lets you recover a little and build your speed back up to hit the final sprint with some momentum.
