Difficulty analysis: With 3.5 km for 223 m of elevation gain and an average gradient of 6.4%, this Cat 2 climb demands a sustained effort, but there are no truly extreme sections. The hard parts are concentrated at the start, on KM 0.0-0.5 at 9%, then in the KM 2.5-3.0 stretch at 8%, which comes after a steady section at 6-7%. KM 3.0-3.5, at just 2%, offers a welcome breather before the finish.
Tips for managing your effort:
1. Don't go out too hard. KM 0.0-0.5 at 9% tempts you to push a high tempo, but save something in the tank for the kilometres ahead.
2. Settle into a rhythm between KM 1.0 and KM 2.5. On these 6-7% sections, a steady cadence and a gear that suits you will help limit muscle fatigue.
3. Save something for the final push. After the 8% stretch at KM 2.5-3.0, use the 2% section at KM 3.0-3.5 to recover, then attack toward the line.
