This climb isn't exactly legendary in the cycling sense. The ground is bad and there's a lot of traffic. It's still Paris, so it's nice, but there you go...... read more

The only useful thing about this climb is its Tour de France fame, even if the traffic makes it less enjoyable. Not very clean cobblestones, lots of glass in our path... To be done to discover, but not to be done again.

La seule utilitée de cette montée, est sa renommée liée au Tour de France ; même si avec la circulation elle reste moins sympa. Pavés pas très propres, beaucoup de verre sur notre passage... A faire pour découvrir, mais pas à refaire

In my opinion it's not a climb, but it's the end of the most important cycling race of the World. These are the Champs-Eliysées, an iconic place. You ride it and in front of you there is the Arc du Triomphe. So for the Grandeur, let's consider it a climb...

Cette montée n’est pas vraiment légendaire au sens du cyclisme. Le sol est mauvais et il y a beaucoup de circulation. Ça reste Paris donc c’est joli mais voilà…
