Difficulty breakdown: This 7.2 km climb with 481 m of elevation gain, averaging 6.7%, is rated Category 1. Its difficulty lies mainly in the uneven profile: the sections KM 1.0-1.5 (13%), KM 2.0-2.5 (12%) and KM 5.5-6.0 (11%) really break your rhythm. The flat section at KM 3.0-3.5 (0%) gives you a breather, but the finish is still tough, with 9% over KM 6.0-6.5.
Tips for managing your effort:
1. Save something in the tank. The first kilometres at 4% (KM 0.0-0.5) are the place to find a steady rhythm without blowing up before the steepest ramps.
2. Use the flat to recover. The 0% stretch at KM 3.0-3.5 is the perfect moment to drink, get some food in and pick up the cadence again before the second half of the climb.
3. Pace yourself on the 11-13% ramps. On KM 1.0-1.5, 2.0-2.5 and 5.5-6.0, it's better to keep a smooth cadence and stay seated rather than mashing the gears, so you have something left for the 9% finish on KM 6.0-6.5.
