Yesterday, with beautiful weather, I climbed this Rue de La Montagne at the end of a long ride. I came from Rocroy in descent direction Couvin where you can enjoy a great fast descent and admire the real start of the Ardennes along the west side. The ascent of this Montagne is not very difficult with only a few strips going above 8%, the road surface is good and there is little traffic.

Yesterday, with beautiful weather, I climbed this Rue de La Montagne at the end of a long ride. I came from Rocroy in descent direction Couvin where you can enjoy a great fast descent and admire the real start of the Ardennes along the west side. The ascent of this Montagne is not very difficult with only a few strips going above 8%, the road surface is good and there is little traffic. At the crossing of the (new) highway, you can enjoy a moon landscape for a while and the tarmac is even better. As desert you can enjoy a beautiful view in a wooded area at the reservoir. The descent to Petigny is capricious and ends very quickly on a deteriorating road right in the village, pay attention there.

Gisteren bij stralend weer deze Rue de La Montagne beklommen op het einde van een lange rit. Ik kwam vanuit Rocroy in afdaling richting Couvin waarbij je van een geweldige snelle afdaling kan genieten en de echte start van de Ardennen langs de westkant kan bewonderen. De beklimming van deze Montagne is niet heel lastig met slechts enkele stroken die boven 8% gaan, het wegdek is goed en er is weinig verkeer. Ter hoogte van de passage van de (nieuwe) snelweg geniet je even van een maanlandschap en is de asfalt nog beter. Als toetje kan je bij het stuwmeer van een prachtig uitzicht in een bosrijk gebied genieten. De afdaling naar Petigny is grillig en eindigt heel snel op een aftakelend wegdek recht in het dorpje, opletten daar.
