The climb is fine, but the section with the steepest gradients is one-way, and there’s no room for cars to pass each other. Unfortunately, there’s a lot of traffic on this road as it’s one of the only routes by car between the Joncherettes neighbourhood and the lower part of the town. You therefore need to go at off-peak times if you hope to avoid having to stop. The climb would be brilliant if the local council reversed the direction of traffic.... read more

La côte est bien mais elle est à sens unique dans sa partie avec les plus forts pourcentages et il n'y a pas de place pour se croiser avec les voitures. Malheureusement, il y a beaucoup de circulation sur cette voie car c'est un des seuls accès en voiture entre le quartier des Joncherettes et le bas de la ville. Il faut donc y aller à des heures de faible affluence pour espérer ne pas avoir à s'arrêter.
La côte serait géniale si la mairie inversait les sens de circulation.

It's a magnificent climb, but the street is one-way, relatively narrow and we're going the wrong way. So if a wide car comes along, you have to put your foot down :/.
However, in my opinion, it's a difficulty that's well worth the diversions. I loved riding up this hill!

Une montée magnifique mais la rue est à sens unique, relativement fine et nous sommes à contre-sens. Alors si une voiture un peu large pointe le bout de son nez, il faut poser le pied à terre :/
Cependant c'est une difficulté qui vaut largement le détour selon moi, j'ai adoré roulé sur cette côte !

The end is serious! Rue Élisée holds its own from start to finish. It climbs up through the midst of small detached houses and well-appointed homes.
Nothing incredible, but if you're looking for solid gradients, this is a real option...

La fin est sérieuse ! La rue Élisée Reclus se défend du début à la fin. On grimpe au milieu de petits pavillons et de maisons cossues.
Rien d’incroyable mais si vous cherchez du calme et des pourcentages solides, c’est une vraie belle option…
