One of the tougher climbs in this area. Starts steep immediately past the church and remains steep going forward, with small sections that flatten out. Fine road surface during the climb.... read more

One of the tougher climbs in this area. Starts steep immediately past the church and remains steep going forward, with small sections that flatten out. Fine road surface during the climb.

Een van de zwaardere klimmen in deze omgeving. Begint meteen steil langs de kerk en blijft steil in het vervolg, met kleine stukjes die afvlakken. Prima wegdek tijdens de klim.
