Difficulty analysis: At 11.4 km for 589 m of elevation gain and an average gradient of 5.2%, this first-category climb is demanding but steady. Kilometres 0 to 5 hover between 4 and 5%, then the easiest stretch (km 5 to 7) stays at 3%. The real difficulty is concentrated in the second half: 6% from km 7 to 8, 7% from km 9 to 10, 8% from km 10 to 11, then 7% all the way to the summit, where the accumulated fatigue will weigh the most.
Tips for pacing yourself:
1. Don't go out too hard. Over the first 5 km, at 4 to 5%, find a strong but sustainable rhythm so you still have something left for the finale.
2. Recover on the easier section. Make the most of the 3% gradients between km 5 and 7 to drink, fuel up and get your cadence back.
3. Manage the final part. From km 9 onwards, shift into a light gear, keep your cadence high and your power steady all the way to the top.
