It was quite a climb from Bekkevoort to Scherpenheuvel.
I was coming from the Koningin Astridstraat. With some luck there is little traffic on the busy road and you can cross at the intersection with some speed to attack the slope.
Underground is clinkers, but are newer than those in the photo. The road surface has presumably been renewed. You get to the top very quickly, but then you run out of eyes every time. You come to a kind of square/parking where cars're driving and then turn right into the Brouwerijstraat. A very narrow road here and at the next intersection you drive straight past a sign C1, excluding cyclists. But it still remains observant and busy.
As a result, before you know it, you are at the top and have not been able to give your all.
I like the side via the Diestsestraat better.
Het was al heel wat klimmen van Bekkevoort naar Scherpenheuvel.
Ik kwam van de Koningin Astridstraat. Met wat geluk is er weinig verkeer op de drukke weg en kan je met wat snelheid oversteken op het kruispunt om de helling aan te vallen.
Ondergrond bestaat uit klinkers, maar zijn nieuwer dan die op de foto. Het wegdek is vermoedelijk vernieuwd. Je bent heel snel boven, maar je komt dan telkens ogen te kort. Je komt op een soort pleintje/parking waar auto's rijden om vervolgens rechts de Brouwerijstraat in te slaan. Een heel smal wegje hier en je rijdt aan het volgend kruispunt rechtdoor voorbij een bord C1, uitgezonderd fietsers. Maar het blijft toch opletten en druk.
Hierdoor ben je boven voordat je het weet en heb je je toch niet volledig kunnen geven.
De kant via de Diestsestraat vind ik leuker.
