The first part is fairly easy, but halfway through it gets tougher and you have to hang on.
I nearly exploded.
Short climb but not to be taken lightly.
Tarmac more than adequate.

Une première partie assez facile mais à mi-chemin ça se corse et là il faut s'accrocher.
Pour ma part j'ai failli exploser.
Montée courte mais à ne pas prendre à la légère.
Asphalte plus que correct.
