Variant of the wine press.

In the narrow streets of Leuven city centre, it is difficult to keep your speed high. The many turns and turns on this short strip make it cluttered and at times dangerous to want to complete this variant at full speed. The gradient is certainly inviting. Where the Wijnpers is a real line in terms of gradient, Noormannenstraat is a more moderate variant. Only towards the end does it get slightly steeper, but nothing to worry about.

Variant van de Wijnpers.

In de smalle straten van de Leuvense binnenstad is het moeilijk om je snelheid hoog te houden. Het vele draaien en keren op deze korte strook maakt het onoverzichtelijk en bij momenten gevaarlijk om deze variant aan volle snelheid te willen voltooien. De hellingsgraad is zeker uitnodigend. Daar waar de Wijnpers een heuse streep vormt qua hellingsgraad, daar is de Noormannenstraat een meer gematigde variant. Enkel naar het einde toe wordt het iets steiler, maar niets om je druk over te maken.

Short climb begins on the slightly rising cobblestones of the residential street (Brouwersstraat) followed by a short flat section (Irish Predikherenstraat). After turning right on the Noormannenstraat follows a steep right left route with straight false flat spur to the highest point of the Mechelse Vest.
Another street in the center of Leuven where many students are biting their teeth!

Korte klim begint op de licht stijgende klinkers van de woonerf straat (Brouwersstraat) gevolg door even een vlak tussenstuk (Ierse Predikherenstraat). Na het rechts opdraaien van de Noormannenstraat volgt een pittige rechts links route met rechte vals plat uitloper tot het hoogste punt van de Mechelse Vest.
Weer zo een straat in Leuven centrum waar menig student zijn tanden op stukbijt!
