So, the Roche Guyon climb, first of all I'd say it's the hardest climb on the Ile de France. It's really very difficult: the footing is fairly straightforward, but as soon as you reach the first bend it gets a lot tougher, as you hit 20%. Then you get into the straight. If you're already dead by then, the rest is going to be a real ordeal: you literally have to fight to reach the bridge. And then you're done. What's more, this jewel is located in one of the prettiest areas of the Ile de France: it's well worth the diversions.
Alors, la côte de la roche Guyon, j'affirme tout d'abord qu'il s'agit de la monté la plus dure d'île de France. Ces vraiment très difficile: Le pied est assez simple, mais dès que l'on atteint le premier virage ça se corse énormément, puisque on atteint les 20%. Ensuite on arrive dans la ligne droite. Si on est déjà mort à ce moment là, la suite va être un véritable calvaire: on doit se battre littéralement pour atteindre le pont. Et puis on a finit. Par ailleurs ce joyaux se trouve dans une zone parmi les plus jolie d'île de France: Elle vaux vraiment le détour.
Probably the steepest climb in the Vexin Normand sector... A real wall. What's more, La Roche Guyon is a very pretty village, well worth a visit.
Sûrement la côte la plus raide du secteur Vexin normand... Un vrai mur. De plus la roche guyon est un très joli village, à faire.
The only real wall in Ile de France! So, yes, this very short climb is really worth doing when you are in the Paris region. It's short but very steep and therefore really intense. I like this type of effort.
Le seul vrai mur d’île de France ! Donc, oui, cette côte très courte est vraiment à faire quand on est en région parisienne. C’est court mais ultra pendu et donc vraiment intense. J’aime bien ce type d’effort.
