Difficulty breakdown: At 24.6 km, with an average gradient of 7.3% and 1,785 m of elevation gain, the Ravangla Pass from Yangang is an HC climb that demands pacing over the long haul. The opening is punchy, with 8% from km 0 to 1, and most of the climb sits between 5% and 7% with no real respite. The 0% sections (km 12 to 13 and km 14 to 15) give you a breather mid-climb, while the finale is the steepest part, with 10% from km 23 to 24 and then 8% all the way to the top.
Effort tips:
1. Ride a steady pace from the bottom: the 8% in the first few km will tempt you to go out too hard, so settle into a rhythm and an effort you can hold from the start.
2. Make the most of the flat bits: use the 0% sections (km 12 to 13 and km 14 to 15) to drink, eat and drop your shoulders.
3. Save something for the end: hit the 10% at km 23 to 24 and the 8% finish with a gear you can spin and a steady cadence, without blowing up.
