Difficulty analysis: This Category 2 climb has a demanding profile. The main challenge is the central kilometre (1.5-2.5km), where the gradient hits 12%, preceded by a section at 10%. The start is relatively manageable (3%-6%), but the effort quickly becomes very intense for the second half of the climb.
How to manage the effort:
1. Set your pace from the first kilometre: Resist the urge to go too hard on the gentle opening slopes (3%-6%). Save your legs for the critical 10-12% sections.
2. Prepare for the heart of the climb: The gradient ramps up sharply after 1km. Get your head and legs ready for the 12% attack by finding a steady, sustainable rhythm before you reach this decisive section.
3. Make the most of the easier finish: The last two segments (8% and 7%) offer some respite. Use them to recover a little and keep a solid cadence all the way to the summit.
