A beautiful, difficult but satisfying climb once finished, non-existent traffic, and... terrible asphalt. The road has been abandoned for years, it looks like it's been bombed. You need a mountain bike or a gravel bike; riding it with a bike is suicide for the tyres and it is also dangerous because of possible punctures (bear in mind that after the climb there is a fairly steep descent).
Una salita bellissima, difficile ma che comporta soddisfazione una volta terminata, traffico inesistente, e... asfalto terribile. La strada è abbandonata a sé stessa da anni, sembra sia stata bombardata. Ci vuole una mtb o una gravel, percorrerla con la bdc è un suicidio per i copertoni ed è anche pericoloso per possibili forature (tenete conto che dopo la salita c'è una discesa abbastanza ripida).
I had read that the road was not in the best of shape, but that is a huge understatement. There is hardly any tarmac left and most of it is on the sides which are overgrown with bushes. A very tough climb with regular sections that don't go below 10％, especially in combination with the road surface.
I managed with 25mm tyres, but would definitely not recommend it, except on a mountain bike.
Ik had gelezen dat de weg er niet zo best bij lag, maar dat is een enorm understatement. Er is nauwelijks nog asfalt over en het meeste ligt aan de zijkanten die overgroeid zijn door bosjes. Erg pittige klim met regelmatig stukken die niet onder de 10％ komen, helemaal in combinatie met het wegdek.
Ik heb het gered met 25mm bandjes, maar zou het zeker niet aanraden, behalve met een mountainbike.
