Famous circuit because of the many cycling races that take place here. The famous "S" d'Overijse is not so difficult and the climb that follows is quite regular. The difficulty comes from its length and especially, in my opinion, from the danger of the many trucks and cars that drive by and dangerously brush against you. Conclusion: not pleasant at all!... read more

Not a difficult climb, but mostly long. Is known as the finish of the Brabant Arrow, and the racing feel is also evident from the murals of famous cyclists. The road is busy though which makes the climb a lot less pleasant.

Geen moeilijke klim, maar vooral lang. Is bekend als finish van de Brabantse pijl, en het koersgevoel is ook zichtbaar aan de muurschilderingen van bekende wielrenners. De weg is wel druk wat de klim een stuk minder aangenaam maakt.

In.itself not a difficult climb, but the difficulty lies mainly in the length of the climb. After the S-curve, the climb continues for kilometres where there seems to be no end. Just before the junction with traffic lights, you finally reach the top.

Op.zich geen moeilijk klim, maar de moeilijkheid ligt vooral in de lengte van de klim. Na de S-bocht trekt de klim nog kilometers door waar geen eind aan lijkt te komen. Net voor de kruising met stoplichten ben je dan toch eindelijk boven.

Done this one during "Brabantse Pijl Cyclo 2025" and then the road was made car-free. Then it is pleasant to do: good road surface, wide, quiet runner - and of course the S-boch itself is iconic. Fun to be able to cycle it up this way for once - because with traffic, it's no fun here

Deze gedaan tijdens "Brabantse Pijl Cyclo 2025" en toen werd de weg autovrij gemaakt. Dan is hij wel plezant om te doen: goed wegdek, breed, rustige loper - en natuurlijk is de S-boch zelf iconisch. Plezant om hem op deze manier eens te kunnen opfietsen - want met verkeer is het hier niet leuk

'familiar' from some courses. Nothing difficult about it, The meander is nice in itself but it is still a busy road through a village centre.

'bekend' uit sommige koersen. Niks moeilijks aan, Het slingertje is op zich wel leuk maar het blijft een drukke weg door een centrum van een dorp.

Ridden on Sunday afternoon after the, very calm on the track. A climb to pick up some pace while. The S winds around a church with some terraces and bars along the way.

Op zondagnamiddag gereden na de, zeer kalm op de baan. Een klim om wat tempo te maken terwijl. De S slingert rond een kerk met een aantal terrassen en bars langs de weg.

Nice little mountain due to the prominence of the Brabantse Pijl finale. Fairly constant so a nice pace to the top. The swinging is fun, but you can't really call it hairpin bends.

Leuk bergje door de bekendheid van de finale van Brabantse Pijl. Redelijk constant dus een mooi tempo naar boven. Het slingertje is lachen, maar echt haarspeldbochten kan je het niet noemen

Hairpins like this are not to be found in the north of this country... it is this "S-bocht" that makes this coast special. As for the rest, I can only confirm what bigigodin said: it is generally quite unpleasant to climb because of the heavy traffic on the N4. Fortunately, there are less crowded alternatives: the IJskelderlaan, the Schavei, the Taymansstraat (just after the S), or even the Kardaan for those who like (very) steep cobbled slopes.

Des épingles à cheveux comme cela, on n'en trouve guère au nord de ce pays… c'est ce « S-bocht » qui rend cette côte particulière. Pour le reste, je ne peux que confirmer les propos de bigigodin : elle est généralement franchement désagréable à grimper en raison du trafic intense sur la N4. Heureusement, il y a des alternatives moins fréquentées : la IJskelderlaan, le Schavei, la Taymansstraat (juste après le S), ou même le Kardaan pour les amateurs de (très) fortes pentes pavées.

Circuit célèbre car y passent de nombreuses courses cyclistes. Le fameux "S" d'Overijse n'est pas si difficile et la montée qui s'ensuit est assez régulière. La difficulté vient de sa longueur et surtout, selon moi, du danger des nombreux camions et voitures qui y circulent et qui vous frôlent dangereusement. Conclusion : pas agréable du tout !
