Breakdown of the climb: This Category 4 climb is fairly short (5.8 km) with a moderate average gradient of 3.1%. The main challenge is its irregularity: stretches at 5% (between 0.5-1.5 km and 4.5-5.0 km) break your rhythm, followed by flatter sections around 1% (between 2.5-3.5 km).
How to manage your effort:
1. Dial in your pace on the 5% sections to avoid blowing up, especially at the start and near the top.
2. Make the most of the two flattest kilometres (2.5-3.5 km) to recover and refuel.
3. Save something for the final 5% kicker before the finish, between 4.5 and 5.0 km.
