Really on the main road: nice surface, but be prepared to have cars driving by continuously. Not really hard at any point in time, just a bit of a drag all along... read more

If you want to get from Oudenaarde to Ronse as quickly as possible, this is the best road. It is a big and busy road, but the tarmac is very good, there is enough space between the road itself and the cycle path and it is nowhere more than a runner. If you want a bit more peace and quiet, you can take a turn at any time and immediately come across lots of cool climbs on nicer roads.

Als je zo snel mogelijk van Oudenaarde tot in Ronse wilt geraken is dit de beste weg. Het is wel een grote en drukke baan, maar het asfalt is zeer goed, er is genoeg ruimte tussen de weg zelf en het fietspad en het is nergens meer dan een loper. Als je wat meer rust wilt kan je op eender welk moment een afslag nemen en kom je meteen veel toffe klimmetjes op mooiere wegen tegen.

Along the main road from Oudenaarde towards Ronse, Hotond. A long climb that goes up and down all the time. Nice tarmac though.

Langs de grote baan vanuit Oudenaarde richting Ronse, Hotond. Een ellenlange beklimming die heel de tijd op en neer gaat. Wel mooi asfalt.
