Difficulty analysis: Hlaváčky from Vidče is a short but demanding climb, with 214 m of elevation gain over 3.7 km for an average gradient of 5.8%. The start is the nastiest: between km 0.5 and km 1.0 the gradient hits 10%, and the first 1.5 km stay between 7% and 10%. The stretch from km 2.0 to km 2.5, a slight descent at -1%, then gives you a real breather before the finish, where km 3.0 to km 3.7 stays at 7%.
Tips for the effort:
1. Pace your start. The first km at 8% and 10% will eat through your reserves fast, so keep a controlled cadence and don't blow up right at the foot of the climb.
2. Recover on the descent from km 2.0 to km 2.5. Spin the legs out, eat, drink, and get your head ready for the ramp back up.
3. Save something for the finish. Between km 3.0 and km 3.7 the gradient holds steady at 7%: keep a smooth, even cadence and only attack in the last hundred metres.
