As described straightforward, first between houses,where the road surface is still good, and later turning into a cycle path through the forest. As soon as you enter the forest, the road surface becomes bad. Crumbling asphalt with thus sharp edges and loose pebbles, coarse gravel. Climbing is not such'a problem, but once descending you have to keep your hands on the brakes because you bounce quite a bit. Fortunately, it is only a short stretch as you are soon back on normal road surface.... read more

Zoals beschreven rechttoe rechtaan, eerst tussen de huizen,waar het wegdek nog goed is, en later overgaan in een fietspad door het bos. Zodra je het bos ingaat wordt het wegdek slecht. Afgebrokkeld asfalt met dus scherpe randen en losliggende steentjes, grove gravel. Klimmend is dat niet zo'n
probleem, maar eenmaal afdalend moet je wel de handen bij de remmen houden want je stuitert behoorlijk. Gelukkig is dat maar een kort stukkie want je zit alweer snel op normaal wegdek.

Straight road uphill so you can see much of the climb immediately nicely. At first you ride between detached houses but further on you enter the forest, the road gets narrower and the road surface a bit less (but doable). Here the climb pulls on for a while until the clear highest point.

Kaarsrechte weg omhoog dus je ziet een groot deel van de klim meteen mooi liggen. Eerst rijd je tussen de vrijstaande huizen maar verderop ga je het bos in, wordt de weg smaller en het wegdek wat minder (maar goed te doen). Hier trekt de klim nog even door tot het duidelijke hoogste punt.

Nice climb that continues for quite a long time after the steepest part. You can make mistakes if you start too fanatically. Road surface is a bit less in the last 300m, but rideable on a road bike.

Mooie klim die na het steilste stuk nog best lang doorloopt. Hier kan je je dus ook op verkijken als je te fanatiek start. Wegdek is in de laatste 300m wat minder, maar wel met racefiets te rijden.
