Pacing tips:
1. Don't go out too hard. Don't go too hard on the 8% ramp from km 0.5 to km 1.0. Settle into a steady rhythm from the bottom to keep something in the tank.
2. Hold a steady cadence. Between km 1.0 and km 5.0, where the gradient hovers between 5% and 7%, choose a gear you can hold without surging, and stay seated most of the time.
3. Recover on the false flat. Use the km 5.5 to km 6.0 section at 2% to ease off the pedals a touch and set up for the final push before the descent.
