A nice and tough cobblestone track, hidden between Huldenberg and Overijse. For the real Flandriens, the Groeneweg might not be hard enough, but on the cobblestone of 16-17% you'll think you're in the Flemish Ardennes. It is a nice detour instead of the long straight road between Huldenberg and Overijse.
Leuk en pittig kasseibaantje dat een beetje verdoken ligt tussen Huldenberg en Overijse. Voor de echte Flandriens is de Groeneweg wellicht niet zwaar genoeg, maar op het kasseiknikje van 16-17% waan je zowaar even in de Vlaamse Ardennen. Al bij al leuk om als omweg mee te pakken in plaats van de lange, rechte steenweg tussen Huldenberg en Overijse.
The steepest passage is about 15%, the pavement is good and soon after this hard passage the asphalt is found.
Apart from this passage the rest is not very hard.
Le passage le plus pentu fait environ 15%, le pavé est bon et peu de temps après ce dur passage l on retrouve l asphalte.
Hormis ce passage le reste n est pas très dur.
After a short, fairly flat section, there is a cobblestone wall. The slope rises sharply with a very hard section. Given the percentage, it seems inevitable that you will dance, but it is very difficult because the cobblestones make the wheels jump. It is therefore necessary to stay seated and push hard on the pedals. Fortunately, it doesn't take too long. The pavement seems to have been renovated and the cobblestones are now much more even. The setting is very pleasant. A great experience and a must do!
Après une courte partie assez plate, se dresse un mur en pavés. La pente monte brutalement avec une portion très dure. Vu le pourcentage, se mettre en danseuse semble inévitable, mais c'est très difficile car les pavés font sauter les roues. Il est donc nécessaire de rester assis et de pousser très fort sur les pédales. Heureusement, ce n'est pas trop long. Le revêtement semble avoir été rénové et les pavés sont maintenant beaucoup plus réguliers. Le cadre est très agréable. Belle expérience à faire absolument !
A cobblestone wall but apparently unknown since I am always alone there. The cobblestone part goes up to 16%, but keep pedaling and you're there. After that it's almost only flat.
Een kasseimuur maar blijkbaar toch onbekend aangezien ik er altijd alleen ben. Het kasseideel gaat zeker tot 16%, maar trap even door en je bent er. Daarna zo goed als enkel nog vlak.
