1. Pace yourself from the bottom. In the first kilometers at 3% and 4%, sit back so you reach the heart of the climb, between km 1.5 and km 4.0, with fresh legs.
2. Prepare for the 9% section. Between km 2.0 and km 2.5, shift into a gear that's easy enough, keep a steady cadence, and avoid going into the red.
3. Use the relative flat. Between km 4.5 and km 5.5, where the gradient eases to 2% or 4%, pick up the cadence and recover before the final effort.
