I drove up the Lüdenscheidsingel for the first time about 12 years ago. At the time, the climb followed the same route as the motor traffic: a murderous lane alongside which cars and lorries raced past at 70 km/h. It was pure madness. Pure madness!

Now, so many years later, the Lüdenscheidsingel is completely separated from the busy traffic for cyclists. A completely new cycle path runs under the existing car viaduct from the Leuven canal, bringing you to the foot of this climb. A perfect strip of asphalt brings you in two "steeper"kinks of about 5 to 6 percent to the top of the canal, where also the top of the Leopold Decouxlaan can be found.

Zo'n 12 jaar geleden reed ik voor de eerste keer de Lüdenscheidsingel op. De toenmalige klim verliep toen via hetzelfde tracé als het gemotoriseerd verkeer: een "moordstrookje" waarnaast auto's en vrachtwagens je aan 70 km/u voorbijrazen. Pure waanzin!

Nu, zoveel jaar na datum, is de Lüdenscheidsingel voor fietsers compleet gescheiden van het drukke verkeer. Vanuit de Leuvense vaartkom loopt een volledig nieuw fietspad onder het bestaande autoviaduct, dat je aan de voet van deze klim brengt. Een perfecte strook asfalt brengt je in twee "steilere" knikken van zo'n 5 à 6 procent naar de top van de singel, alwaar eveneens de top van de Leopold Decouxlaan te vinden is.

Start at the canal basin at the end of the Mechelen-Leuven Canal.
Wide bike path for both directions rises, initially under the climbing viaduct of the busy ring road, to reach the end completely separated right next to it. The highest point and the end are reached at the ring road exit direction Mechelen/Herent/E40-314.
A fine example of cycling infrastructure. More of that!

Start ter hoogte van de vaartkom aan het einde van het kanaal Mechelen-Leuven.
Breed fietspad voor beide richtingen stijgt , aanvankelijk onder het klimmende viaduct van de drukke ring, mee opwaarts om naar het einde toe volledig afgescheiden er vlak naast boven te komen. Hoogste punt en einde bereik je aan de ringafslag richting Mechelen/Herent/E40-314.
Knap staaltje fietsinfrastructuur. Meer van dat!
