Difficulty analysis: This 3rd category climb is long (8.3 km) but has a moderate average gradient of 2.9%. The difficulty lies in its uneven profile: a very gentle first part (KM 1.0-1.5 at 0% and KM 3.5-4.5 with a slight downhill) followed by a tougher second half from KM 5.0, where the gradient regularly goes above 4-6% all the way to the summit.
Tips for pacing yourself:
1. Pacing: Don't get fooled by the easy start. Save your legs for the last 3 km, the steepest section (4-6%).
2. Active recovery: Use the flat or downhill sections (around KM 4) to ease off a little and recover, without freewheeling.
3. Approaching the top: Anticipate the steeper finish. Keep something in the tank to hold a good rhythm over the last kilometre at 6%.
