The weather was heavy and humid. There were more people than usual. A few reckless drivers. The last 500 meters were just as difficult as ever. With an uphill stretch toward the river just before

Temps lourd et humide. Plis de monde que d'habitude avec. Quelques cinglés du volant. Toujours aussi difficile les 500 derniers mètres. Avec une montée à la rivière envers juste avant

Nice climb not too long. Nice views over the valley. Descent is watchful though, narrow, not too good road surface.

Mooie niet al te lange klim. Mooi uitzicht over het dal. Afdaling is wel uitkijken, smal, niet al te best wegdek.
