Busy stinky road, would only use it if you really have to be here. Bike path may be clear, but it is always busy here.

Drukke stinkweg, zou het alleen gebruiken als je hier echt moet zijn. Fietspad ligt weliswaar vrij, maar het is hier altijd druk.

Indeed a climb hardly worth the name and given the busy environment to be avoided. Of course, if you have to sprint like in this year's World Cup after 280 km and many mountains, your legs will be totally worn out. But I don't go there by bike.

Inderdaad een beklimming de naam amper waard en gezien de drukke omgeving te vermijden. Natuurlijk als je zoals in het WK van dit jaar na 280 km en vele bergjes hier moet sprinten zullen de benen wel totaal verzuren. Maar ik kom er niet met de fiets.

This climb runs alongside (via a separate cycle track) the final climb of the 2021 world championships, on the Leuven ring. In itself, it is not particularly attractive: not very steep, "urban motorway" type environment...

Cette côte longe (via une piste cyclable séparée) la montée finale des championnats du monde 2021, sur le ring de Louvain. En elle-même, elle n'est pas particulièrement attrayante : peu pentue, environnement de type «autoroute urbaine»…

This slope is actually not worth the name 'climb'. It is located on the two-way cycling path on the Ruelensvest and ends at the junction with the Geldenaaksebaan. The gradients are so low that you hardly realize you're climbing. Unfortunately also very busy.

Deze helling is eigenlijk de naam ‘klim’ niet waard. Hij bevindt zich op het tweerichtingsfietspad op de Ruelensvest en eindigt op de kruising met de Geldenaaksebaan. De stijgingspercentages zijn echter zo laag dat je amper beseft dat je aan het klimmen bent. Helaas ook zeer druk.
