1. Pace yourself from the start Hold a steady rhythm on the 3% to 4% slopes of the opening kilometers so you reach the foot of the 11% ramp with something left in the tank.
2. Prepare for the 11% ramp Shift into an easy enough gear before km 3.0 and stay seated to keep a smooth, steady cadence.
3. Don't blow up between km 2.5 and 3.0 This 5% stretch is often where riders try to sprint, yet there are still nearly 500 m of demanding climbing ahead, so keep some power in reserve.
