Difficulty breakdown: This 2nd category climb has an uneven profile. The real test comes in the second half, with three very tough kilometers (KM 3.0-4.0: gradients of 9% to 11%) after a more moderate first section. The average gradient of 6.4% is misleading because of this up-and-down pattern.
Tips for managing your effort:
1. Pacing: Start easy over the first kilometers (3%-7%) to save your legs. Expect the sharp jump in gradient from the 3rd kilometer onward.
2. Keep something in the tank: Save some physical and mental reserves for the KM 3.0-4.0 section, the steepest part (9%-11%), which will decide your final time.
3. Gear shifting: Be ready to change cadence and gear quickly on the 3-4% stretches so you can recover before the 8-11% segments.
