Not nice cycling route. Next to stone road, poor cycle paths. Not recommended.

the only magic involved here was taking away my temper when I had to stop to cross the road. You pass here only on your way to the Grape Region where more 'goodies' can be found.

het enige toveren dat hier aan te pas kwam was het wegtoveren van mijn humeur toen ik moest stoppen om de weg over te steken. Je passeert hier enkel op weg naar de Druivenstreek waar meer 'lekkers' te vinden is.

With some sense of exaggeration, you could call this slope a three-stage rocket. The first section takes you over a railway bridge, then you take a badly bulging cycle path to the traffic lights at the top of the Brusselsesteenweg. The last part is immediately where the punch is: here the cobblestones of the cycle paths give way to an asphalted one...

The only reason to ride this route is to turn left at the traffic lights to reach the nearby ice cream bar Croccantino. Delicious scoop ice cream, but quite spicy in price.

Met enige zin voor overdrijving zou je deze helling een drietrapsraket kunnen noemen. Het eerste gedeelte brengt je over een spoorwegbrug, vervolgens neem je een slecht bollend fietspad tot aan de verkeerslichten bovenaan de Brusselsesteenweg. Het laatste gedeelte is meteen het stukje waar de punch zich bevindt: alhier maken de klinkers van de fietspaden plaats voor een geasfalteerd exemplaar...

De enige reden waarom je op deze route zou rijden, is om aan de verkeerslichten linksaf te slaan en alzo de nabijgelegen ijsbar Croccantino te bereiken. Lekker schepijs, maar best wel pittig geprijsd.

Not the best road surface indeed. On Sunday morning it was not so busy. Long moderate climb that never really reaches high percentages.

Niet het beste wegdek inderdaad. Op zondagochtend viel het mee qua drukte. Lange matige klim die nooit echt hoge percentages haalt.

Niet aan te raden aangezien dat je halverwege een drukke baan moet oversteken. Tempo maken is dus zeker geen optie en zelfs gevaarlijk. Ook is de klim zelf een drukke baan en dus allesbehalve aangenaam. Ten slotte is het wegdek zeker geen pluspunt, dus je neemt beter gewoon een andere route.

Very bad bike path and a rather busy road. Halfway, you also have to cross the chaussée de Bruxelles/Leuven. Not recommended.

Heel slecht fietspad en een vrij drukke baan. Halfweg moet je ook de steenweg brussel leuven oversteken. Geen aanrader.
