1. Pace yourself from the bottom: don't go out too hard over the first 500 metres at 6%, so you reach the 13% ramp (KM 0.5-1.0) with something left in the tank.
2. Prepare for the 13% section: shift to an easier gear before KM 0.5-1.0, stay in the saddle and keep a smooth, relaxed cadence to control your rhythm.
3. Recover on the rolling section: use the 3%, 4% and 2% sections (KM 1.5-2.9) to pick the pace back up gradually and manage your effort all the way to the top.
