Tips for the effort:
1. Save something in the tank from the start. Don't go out too hard over km 0.0 to 2.0, at 4-5%, so you reach the foot of the steepest section with your head clear.
2. Tackle the key section smoothly. Between km 2.0 and 3.0, select a light gear, keep a steady cadence and a stable seated position, without launching into an explosive effort.
3. Pick up the pace on the rolling section. From km 3.0 to km 4.5, at 2-3% gradient, use the gentler slope to recover and push back up to a strong tempo all the way to the finish.
