This is a tricky sprint for two reasons.
First: it comes at the end of an uphill section, so you have to pace yourself on the climb if you want to have legs in the sprint.
Second: the finish line isn’t visible until the final ~10 seconds. You have to know the length/layout beforehand to attack it optimally.
The sprint begins when you turn a hard right at the end of the uphill straightaway. Rev up your watts before that turn in order to hit the start at a higher speed, then watch for slight uphill ramps, where you’ll want to pour on even more power to keep your speed up.
Note: no Strava segment exists for this sprint, as it is below Strava’s minimum segment length requirement.
