Difficulty analysis: At 7.7 km with 614 m of elevation gain and an average gradient of 7.9%, Sungai Ning is a demanding HC climb. The opening section, more rolling between KM 1.5 and KM 2.5 at 4%, is deceptive. The real difficulty kicks in at KM 2.5 with gradients of 8 to 9% all the way to KM 4.0. The heart of the climb runs from KM 4.0 to KM 6.5, with ramps at 15% (KM 4.0-4.5), 12% (KM 4.5-5.0) and 13% (KM 5.0-5.5) that will drain your legs fast.
Pacing tips:
1. Save yourself at the start. On the first kilometres at 6-7% (KM 0.0-1.0), settle into a steady rhythm and don't go out too hard. You'll need those reserves for the middle section.
2. Prepare for the 15% wall. On the KM 4.0-4.5 section, shift down early, stay in the saddle if you can, and spin smoothly to be easy on your knees and your breathing.
3. Make the most of the final breather. After the KM 6.5-7.0 section at 11%, the KM 7.0-7.5 stretch at 4% gives you a chance to recover for a moment and push on before the descent.
