Short but punchy climb with an explosive middle section. First part runs smoothly, then break on the stone road and immediately firmly back up to the top. Especially a climb where your rhythm breaks easily.... read more

Kort maar pittig klimmetje met een explosief middenstuk. Eerste deel loopt rustig, daarna onderbreking op de steenweg en meteen weer stevig door tot de top. Vooral een klim waar je ritme makkelijk breekt.

Hoogstraat starts to slope a bit at the crossroads with Wagenweg.
The first part is not too bad.
Then it's a pity that the road gets in the way and you have to stop almost to cross the road.
The second part of the climb you'll reach the top with an explosive effort.
The mill is also called "Sandrine".

Hoogstraat begint al licht te hellen aan het kruispunt met de Wagenweg.
Eerste deel valt goed mee.
Dan spijtig dat de steenweg roet in het eten gooit, waardoor je bijna volledig dient te stoppen om over te steken.
Tweede deel van de klim ben je met een explosieve krachtinspanning meteen boven.
Eikenmolen heeft ook de naam "Sandrine".

Nice climb, good gradient. Just a pity that halfway you have to cross a busy road and therefore sometimes you lose your speed ...

Leuke klim, goed stijgingspercentage. Enkel jammer dat je halfweg over een drukke steenweg moet en daardoor je tempo soms kwijtraakt...
