June 22, road works so bad road surface on the village side, loose gravel. Beautiful climb from both sides, magnificent views. 39/25 I found a bit too heavy for a 61 year old. Advantage in June that it is not busy.... read more

June 22, road works so bad road surface on the village side, loose gravel. Beautiful climb from both sides, magnificent views. 39/25 I found a bit too heavy for a 61 year old.
Advantage in June that it is not busy.

Juni 22, weg werkzaamheden dus beroerd wegdek aan de kant van het dorp, los gravel. Mooie klim vanaf beide zijden, schitterend uitzicht. 39/25 vond ik toch iets te zwaar voor een 61 jarige.
Voordeel in juni dat het niet druk is.

Lovely running climb, nice length to go deep and cycle hard for a while. Quiet road, good surface. It's especially nice that you can ride it down on the other side and that this route can be used to avoid the busy roads (like the D11). From campsite La Bastide I started or ended almost every ride with this climb.

Heerlijk lopende klim, mooie lengte om even diep te gaan en hard op te fietsen. Rustige weg, prima wegdek. Het is vooral ook mooi dat je hem aan de andere kant weer af kunt rijden en dat deze route mooi kan dienen om de drukke wegen (zoals de D11) te vermijden. Vanaf camping La Bastide begon of eindigde ik vrijwel elk ritje met deze klim.

Good road surface, even climb. Often cycled as closing of a tour. Descent (1st half) is with the short turns and narrow streets spicy, few times already slipped away but it went well.
When you go straight on at the traffic lights, you can turn left after a few hundred meters on a bicycle path to Ruoms, this one is with 12% spicy.

Goed wegdek, gelijkmatige klim. Vaak gefietst als afsluiter van een tourtje. Afdaling (1e helft) is met de korte bochten en smalle straatjes wel pittig, paar keer al weggegleden maar ging nog goed.
Wanneer je onderaan bij de stoplichten rechtdoor gaat kun je na een paar honderd meter nog linksaf een fietspad op naar Ruoms, deze is met 12% pittig te noemen.

The graph is wrong. A steady climb. About 6% all the time. A runner. Nice climb to get some climbing rhythm.

De grafiek klopt niet. Een gelijkmatige klim. Continue circa 6%. Een loper. Mooie klim om klimritme op te doen.

Nice climb to end a hard tour.
After the section we went to the campsite (La Bastide) and had a nice cold beer.

Mooie klim om een pittige tocht mee af te sluiten.
Na de afdeling de Camping op ( La Bastide) en een lekker koud pilsje pakken

Beautiful climb, once at the top you have a magnificent view of the surroundings. Short but there are certainly tough pieces between!

Prachtige klim, eenmaal boven heb je een schitterend uitzicht over de omgeving. Kort maar er zitten zeker pittige stukken tussen!

Beautiful climb, near our campsite at the time. Cycled a few times in preparation for our climb of Mont Ventoux. Not comparable in length, but nevertheless a nice climb!

Mooie klim, vlakbij onze camping indertijd. Een paar keer gefietst als voorbereiding op onze klim van de Mont Ventoux. Niet te vergelijken qua lengte, maar desondanks een mooi klimmetje!
