2. Settle into a rhythm between km 3.5 and 5.0: on these steady 6% sections, keep a smooth cadence and a sensible gear rather than surging and fading.
3. Recover on the flat bit, then finish strong: the stretch from km 5.0 to km 6.0, at 3 and 4%, gives you a chance to recover before tackling km 6.0 to 8.0 at 7-8%, where you'll need to stay seated and manage your effort right to the top.
