Only drive here if you have to.
Warned again: a lot of traffic. Many trucks. Not fun to drive there.
We have to pedal hard to leave this part as soon as possible.

Hier alleen rijden als het niet anders kan.
Weer gewaarschuwd: heel veel verkeer. Veel vrachtwagens. Niet leuk om daar te rijden.
Flink doortrappen om dit stuk zo snel mogelijk te verlaten.

This climb is part of the circuit of the lake of Serres
-Poncon if you ride it counterclockwise. A good reason to ride it clockwise, because then you have it mainly as a descent. Traffic is not even regional but international. We had many Italian trucks with large trunks. It is towards Cuneo via the Col de Larche an important route. Beautiful views though

Deze klim zit in het rondje van het meer van Serres
-Poncon als je hem tegen de wijzers van de klok rijdt. Een goede reden om het rondje rechtsom te rijden, want dan heb je hem vooral als afdaling. Verkeer is niet eens regionaal, maar internationaal. Wij hadden veel Italiaanse vrachtauto’s met grote stammen. Het is richting Cuneo via de Col de Larche een belangrijke route. Wel mooie uitzichten

Avoid this climb if possible. You cycle through a beautiful area, but it is a busy road where trucks pass. In the beginning of the climb there is a tunnel, so lighting is not an unnecessary luxury. Fortunately, you are rewarded with a beautiful descent!

Laat deze klim links liggen als het even kan. Je fietst weliswaar door een prachtige omgeving, maar het is een vrij drukke provinciale weg waar ook vrachtwagens langsrazen. In het begin van de klim zit een tunnel, verlichting is dus geen overbodige luxe. Gelukkig word je wel beloond met een mooie afdaling!
