Tips

Analysis of the climb: This Category 1 climb has an unusual profile. The difficulty lies in its irregularity: two very flat opening kilometers (1%), followed by a long, steady section at 6-7%, and a very punchy finale (8-10% over the last three kilometers). The effort is deceptive and requires careful pacing.

How to manage the effort:

1. Save something for the finale: Keep some legs in reserve for the last 3 kilometers, the steepest section at 8-10%. Don't let the easy start fool you.

2. Pace yourself on the middle section: Between km 3 and 8, hold a steady effort on the 4 to 7% gradients to avoid blowing up before the final ramp.

3. Use the first kilometers: Take advantage of the 1% gradients at the start to warm up and settle into a good cadence without going into the red.
