The Roches - wrong route

This is an automatic translation, the original language is: Dutch. Show original

Differs very little from the variant that starts in Hony: Part 1 remains very steep anyway and Part 2 goes over the same not very convex concrete slabs.
Wherever you start from: Roche Aux Foucons is a bastard of a climb.

Verschilt maar zeer weinig van de variant die start in Hony: Deel 1 blijft hoe dan ook bijzonder stijl en Deel 2 gaat over dezelfde niet goed bollende betonplaten.
Vanwaar je ook vertrekt: Roche Aux Foucons is rotzak van een klim.

Strangely enough, during the Liége Bastogne Liége, the pros went up this way, slightly easier than the other way. Only the beginning changes though, and most of the climb is still the same
