Il a fallu que cette montée apparaisse sur Climbfinder pour que je me rappelle l'avoir grimpée il y a longtemps. Sans doute parce qu'elle ne m'avait pas plu du tout à l'époque, et que je ne tenais donc pas à m'en rappeler :-)
J'y suis repassé aujourd'hui, pour voir s'il y avait eu du changement. Hé bien non, le pavage est resté franchement mauvais et puisqu'en effet la montée débouche toujours sur un chemin « gravel » (pas en très bon état non plus) ce n'est vraiment pas une montée que je recommande pour un cycliste sur un vélo de route, malgré sa tranquillité.
Typical Flemish-Brabant cobbled slope. It is not in great shape, but is rideable. At the top, the slope turns into a gravel track. So this is more of a dead-end climb, rather than an overrun. Given it ends in a gravel lane and a bird sanctuary, there is no real traffic here.
Typische Vlaams-Brabantse kasseihelling. Ze ligt er niet super bij, maar is berijdbaar. Bovenop loopt de helling over tot een gravelbaantje. Dus dit is eerder een dead-end-climb, dan een overlopertje. Gezien het eindigen in een gravelstrook en een vogelreservaat is het hier niet echt verkeersdruk.
