As a lover of steep climbs, I was very, very disappointed. The descent is an ordeal on a road bike and so is the ascent, given the state of the road. Maybe pleasant on a gravel or mountain bike, but certainly not on a road bike.... read more

As a lover of steep climbs, I was very, very disappointed.

Maybe pleasant on a gravel or mountain bike, but certainly not on a road bike.

Amateur de forts pourcentages, j'ai été très très déçu de cette montée.
La descente est une épreuve en vélo route et la remontée aussi au vu de l'état de la route.
peut-être agréable en gravel ou vtt mais sûrement pas en vélo route.
