A while back, I had climbed Trolie Mountain and was now curious about its brother, Predikherenberg.

After some turning and turning in the town centre, you arrive at the foot. At the start of the climb, after the next intersection, you see a wall looming in the distance. Since the street to the right is one-way and there are bollards in the street to the left, you can take some speed at the crossroads to start the real part of the climb.
I found it really quite steep. See that you find a good cadence and resistance. The road has a good tarmac surface and because it is a cul-de-sac, there is little traffic.
After the steepest part, you try to catch your breath a bit, but the road surface suddenly has a lot of cracks and potholes.

At the end of the street, there is a field road. That one seemed reasonably rideable for the course bike, but still didn't dare. I rode back down.

Nice little climb discovered. On a good day, you can feel good about this. On a worse day, I think you can seriously struggle here.

Een tijdje terug had ik de Trolieberg beklommen en was nu benieuwd naar zijn broer, de Predikherenberg.

Na wat draaien en keren in het centrum kom je aan de voet terecht. In het begin van de klim zie je in de verte, na het volgend kruispunt, een muur opdoemen. Omdat de straat naar rechts éénrichtingsverkeer is en er in de straat naar links paaltjes staan, kan je op het kruispunt wat snelheid nemen om aan het echte deel van de klim te beginnen.
Ik vond het echt wel steil. Zien dat je een goede kadans en verzet vindt. De weg heeft een goede asfaltlaag en omdat het een doodlopende straat is, is er weinig verkeer.
Na het steilste gedeelte probeer je wat op adem te komen, maar in het wegdek zitten opeens veel scheuren en putten.

Op het einde van de straat is er een veldwegje. Die leek redelijk berijdbaar voor de koersfiets, maar waagde het toch niet. Ik reed terug naar beneden.

Leuk klimmetje ontdekt. Op een goede dag kan je hier een goed gevoel aan overhouden. Op een slechtere dag denk ik dat je je hier serieus kan tegenkomen.
