A nice running climb up through a green landscape. I didn't really notice the high percentages in the beginning and the "steepest 100m". The climb is a bit steeper in the beginning though and starts earlier namely at the traffic lights after the tunnel. After that, it mainly becomes a good run with lots of hairpins and sometimes along rock faces.

A nice running climb up through a green landscape. I didn't really notice the high percentages in the beginning and the "steepest 100m". The climb is a bit steeper in the beginning though and starts earlier namely at the traffic lights after the tunnel. After that, it mainly becomes a good run with lots of hairpins and sometimes along rock faces. You do feel the length, especially as the road near the B50 suddenly gets a lot steeper, which is quite noticeable. In Longkamp too, the slope continues to the end. Unfortunately, there is a high risk of other traffic which sometimes drives fast, which is a pity.

Een lekker lopende klim door een groen landschap naar boven. De hoge percentages in het begin en de "steilste 100m" heb ik niet echt gemerkt. De klim is wel wat steiler in het begin en begint al eerder nl. bij de verkeerslichten na de tunnel. Daarna wordt het voornamelijk een goede loper met lekker veel haarspeldbochten en soms langs rotswanden. De lengte laat zich wel voelen, helemaal omdat de weg in de buurt van de B50 ineens een stuk steiler wordt en dan merk je dan wel extra. Ook in Longkamp zelf loopt de helling door tot het eind. Wel helaas grote kans op ander verkeer wat soms hard rijdt, da's wel jammer.
