This one felt - especially up to the first corner - a lot snappier than the profile indicates. Of course, that could be because of the cobbled section which is always a bit trickier to ride. In between the houses, by the way, there are cobbles/cobblestones but they are nicely laid.
The route goes nicely between the houses and past the church after which you ride in a straight line to a small viaduct and just after that you can end up on the viaduct with a hairpin (nice view). The well continues uphill on the left between vineyards and with a few bends you reach the end point. From here you can continue cycling parallel to the contour lines with nice views.
Deze voelde - zeker tot de eerste bocht - heel wat pittiger aan dan het profiel aangeeft. Dat kan natuurlijk door de kasseienstrook komen wat altijd wat lastiger rijden is. Tussen de huizen zijn er trouwens klinkers/kasseitjes maar die zijn netjes gelegd.
De route gaat leuk tussen de huizen door en langs de kerk waarna in een rechte lijn naar een viaductje rijdt en pal daarna met een hairpin op het viaduct uit kan komen (leuk uitzicht). De wel gaat links verder omhoog tussen de wijngaarden en met enkele bochten kom je bij het eindpunt. Hiervandaan kan je parallel aan de hoogtelijnen verder fietsen met leuke uitzichten.
