The distance and percentages of the climb are nice BUT it is a succession of two major lanes. At the first part, I myself started to doubt whether you are allowed to cycle there, cars can pass at more than 100 km/h. You do pass close to Francorchamps, though. The descent to spa is also on that busy road, but blissfully straight and you can get decent speeds. For the road surface, the climb itself and the descent, 2 stars, but better avoided.... read more

De afstand en percentages van de klim zijn leuk MAAR het is een aaneenschakeling van twee grote banen. Bij het eerste deel begon ik zelf te twijfelen of je er wel mocht fietsen, wagens kunnen passeren tegen meer dan 100 km/u. Je passeert wel dicht bij Francorchamps.. De afdaling naar spa is ook wel op die drukke baan, maar wel zalig rechtdoor en kan je deftige snelheden halen. Voor het wegdek, de beklimming zelf en de afdaling toch 2 sterren, maar toch beter vermijden.
