Een van de verschillende manieren om naar de top van de Taaienberg te gaan (zonder de Taaienberg zelf te nemen). Het gaat bijna nooit echt steil. De weg is wel rustig en aangenaam om te fietsen.

This is a climb I often ride as a descent after the Taaienberg, but now I also rode it up. Because of its length, I had estimated it to be a bit heavier, but the gradient is nowhere sufficient to really hurt so it feels more like a long stretch of false flat on a nasty concrete track. There is little else to say, next time it will be back as a descent.

Dit is een beklimming die ik vaak rijd als afdaling na de Taaienberg, maar ik heb hem nu ook eens naar boven gereden. Door zijn lengte had ik hem wat zwaarder ingeschat, maar de hellingsgraad is nergens voldoende om echt pijn te doen dus het voelt eerder als een lang stuk vals plat op een vervelende betonbaan. Verder valt er weinig over te zeggen, de volgende keer zal het terug als afdaling zijn.
