I'm not quite sure what to make of this. This was hardly worthy of a slope. If you drive via Broekem towards the Kasteeldreef, in the distance you can see the road surface sloping into a left turn. A fairly busy lane here, but there is a cycle path next to it. This cycle path is not that great. There is some grass here and there and because of the forest next to it, there are branches on it. The slope itself; a few steps "en danseuse" and you are at the "top". Nice la... read more

A fairly busy lane here, but there is a cycle path next to it. This cycle path is not that great. There is some grass here and there and because of the forest next to it, there are branches on it.
The slope itself; a few steps "en danseuse" and you are at the "top". Nice lane to drive through though.
A little further on you come to a very busy and dangerous crossroads.

Ik weet niet goed wat ik hiervan moet denken. Dit was amper een helling waardig.
Als je via Broekem richting de Kasteeldreef rijdt, zie je in de verte het wegdek hellend een bocht naar links nemen.
Een redelijk drukke baan hier, maar er ligt een fietspad naast. Dit fietspad is niet zo geweldig. Er staat hier en daar wat gras en door het bos wat ernaast ligt, liggen er takken op.
De helling zelf; enkele trappen "en danseuse" en je bent op de "top". Mooie dreef om doorheen te rijden wel.
Wat verder kom je aan een heel druk en gevaarlijk kruispunt.
