This is the continuation of the climb to san Nazarro. When you get to a junction my Garmin indicated end of climb, while it looked like I still had a bit to go. This was correct, because after a short descent a new climb began. 300 altimeters have to be conquered in about 3 km. Then you know, it gets steep. Firm sections above 14％, with peaks above 20％. This stretch will suck you dry! Good luck!... read more

Dit is het vervolg van de klim naar san Nazarro. Wanneer je bij een kruising komt gaf mijn Garmin einde klim aan, terwijl het leek of ik nog een stuk moest. Dat klopt wel, want na een klein stukje afgedaald begon een nieuwe klim. 300 hoogtemeters moeten worden bedwongen in ongeveer 3 km. Dan weet je het wel, het wordt steil. Flink stukken boven de 14％, met uitschieters boven de 20％. Dit stuk zuigt je leeg! Succes!
