Beautiful surroundings and this time the climb is on a cycle path next to a busy road. So there is a lot of traffic, but you only hear and see it. They don't knock you off your feet in any case. Otherwise, as a climb it's just up on power.... read more

Beautiful surroundings and this time the climb is on a cycle path next to a busy road. So there is a lot of traffic, but you only hear and see it. They don't knock you off your feet in any case. Otherwise, as a climb it's just up on power.

Mooie omgeving en deze keer is het klimmen op een fietspad naast een drukke weg. Er is dus veel verkeer, maar die hoor je en zie je dus alleen. Ze rijden je niet van de sokken in ieder geval. Verder is het als klim gewoon omhoog op de macht.

Hmmm hard to judge. This is a real climb though, over a cycle path with fine asphalt. Unfortunately, that cycle path does lie alongside a busy provincial road so you don't really get any riding pleasure from it.

Hmmm moeilijk te beoordelen. Dit is wel een echte klim, over een fietspad met prima asfalt. Helaas ligt dat fietspad wel langs een drukke provinciale weg dus echt rijplezier heb je er eigenlijk niet van.

A narrow bike path, but with a good surface. And that is sometimes different in this region. Like all climbs in this area you just have to push on the big slab and you're up.

Een smal fietspad, maar wel met een goed wegdek. En dat is wel eens anders in deze regio. Zoals alle klimmetjes in deze omgeving ff aanzetten op de grote plaat en je bent boven.

Narrow path with little space and lots of traffic. Rather false flat than any climb.

Smal pad met weinig ruimte en veel verkeer. Eerder vals plat dan enige beklimming.
