A real cobblestone climb in the city! The first part is not so special and crossing the intersecting Brugmanlaan is a crime, but once across, the fun begins with cobblestones. The climb is not very steep but with the irregular cobblestone surface it is still really challenging! Highly recommended for that reason alone!!!... read more

Een echte kasseienklim in de stad! Het eerste deel is niet zo speciaal en het oversteken van de kruisende Brugmanlaan is een crime, maar eenmaal aan de overkant begint de lol met kasseien. De klim is niet erg steil maar met het onregelmatige kasseiendek toch echt wel een uitdaging! Alleen daarom al een aanrader!!
