Difficulty breakdown: This 12 km climb, averaging 3.6% with 429 m of elevation gain, is rated Category 1 and demands a sustained effort over its entire length. The main difficulty comes in the first three kilometres, where the gradient ramps from 4% to 7%, before a more rolling section at 2% between km 3 and km 5. The descents between km 5-6 and km 8-9, along with the 6% section between km 9-10, break your rhythm and make it hard to settle into a steady cadence.
Tips for pacing the climb:
1. Save something in the tank from the start. Going out too hard before the 7% ramp at km 2-3 will cost you dearly later on.
2. Use the flat section between km 3-5 to recover and push on. With only 2% gradient, it's the perfect time to recover while keeping a high cadence before the steeper ramps ahead.
3. Don't ease off on the descents. Keep pedalling through the downhill stretches between km 5-6 and km 8-9 to maintain your momentum and tackle the 5% and 6% pitches without being spent.
