Pacing tips:

1. Don't go out too hard From the first km at 9%, settle into a steady rhythm so you don't burn through your reserves before the steepest part.

2. Save your legs between km 6 and 8 On the 11% and 10% sections, shift into an easy gear, stay seated and keep a smooth cadence.

3. Recover on the rolling sections Use the 5% stretches (km 2 to 3 and km 4 to 5) to fuel up, drink and get your breathing back under control without losing your rhythm.
