Nice climb as it runs through beautiful green surroundings and has a nice number of curves. Fine tarmac and the somewhat steeper bouncer (where the fence nicely marks the gradient) finish it off.

Very nice and beautiful start (same start as Nine-Eyes, the alternative climb). You get to the top on the main track, which is the only downside for me.
