I rode the Ruelle touissaint once, without walking with the bike in hand. When I got to the top, I didn't know what hit me: my heart was pounding heavily in my throat. It was once, but never again. Later, another go, and then walking with the bike in hand. It occurred to me that I couldn't imagine ever having conquered this by bicycle....... read more

I rode the Ruelle touissaint once, without walking with the bike in hand.

When I got to the top, I didn't know what hit me: my heart was pounding heavily in my throat.

It was once, but never again.

Later, another go, and then walking with the bike in hand. It occurred to me that I couldn't imagine ever having conquered this by bicycle....

De Ruelle touissaint heb ik één keer gereden, zonder met de fiets aan de hand te hoeven lopen.

Toen ik boven was, ik wist niet wat me overkwam: mijn hart bonsde hevig in mijn keel.

Het was één keer, maar nooit weer.

Later, nog eens een keer geweest, en toen lopend met de fiets aan de hand. Ik bedacht me, dat ik me niet kon voorstellen, dat ik dit ooit fietsend heb bedwongen...

An easier alternative to the Triple Mur. Still want to drop a bomb? Then take the shortcut Ruelle Toussaint, Belgium's second toughest Cotacol because of this alley. Careful with the racing bike as standing on the pedals is not an option as you will slide away. An appropriate gear (I rode it today with 34 in front 36 at the back) is important to keep pedalling in a seated position without falling over.

Een gemakkelijker alternatief voor de Triple Mur. Wil je toch een bommetje droppen? Neem dan de shortcut Ruelle Toussaint, de tweede zwaarste Cotacol van België vanwege dit steegje. Opgelet met de koersfiets want op de pedalen staan is geen optie omdat je dan weg glijdt. Een aangepaste versnelling (ik reed er vandaag op met 34 vooraan 36 achteraan) is belangrijk om zittend te kunnen blijven trappen zonder om te vallen.

From a sporting point of view, it's a compromise (Belgian-style?) between the steep Triple Mur de Lustin and the long, gently sloping Rue des Fonds in its entirety. So there's something for everyone when it comes to accessing the hilltop village of Lustin. Personally, I prefer the Triple Mur :-)

D'u point de vue sportif, c'est un compromis (à la belge ?) entre le raide Triple Mur de Lustin et les Fonds de Lustin, long et nettement moins pentu.. Il y en a donc pour tous les goûts pour accéder au village perché de Lustin. Pour ma part, je préfère quand même le Triple Mur :-)

Here you only have the last Wall of the 3 Walls. The initial piece is very doable and not that difficult.

Hier heb je enkel de laatste Muur van de 3 Muren. Het beginstuk is zeer goed te doen en niet zo moeilijk.

One of the variants for cycling to Lustin. You ride with a slight diversions which makes the first stretch more moderate but you still bang into that wall at the end. The road is quiet and in reasonable condition.

Een van de varianten om naar Lustin te fietsen. Je rijdt met een kleine omweg waardoor het eerste stuk wat gematigder is maar je knalt nog steeds op het eind tegen die muur aan. De weg is rustig en in redelijke staat.

Slightly longer and smoother version of the mur de monty, but still with the very steep final bomb!

Iets langere en egalere variant van de mur de monty, maar wel met de zeer steile eindbom!
