After a brisk start, halfway you get the opportunity to recover a bit, followed by another tough stretch through the wheat fields. Especially on hot days, you can get pretty broken on that section.

Mooie start vanuit het dorp met haarspeldbochten. Na een pittig begin krijg je halverwege de mogelijkheid om wat te herstellen waarna weer een pittige strook door de graanvelden volgt. Met name op warme dagen kun je hier behoorlijk stuk gaan.
