Nice variant of the Rovorst. The Rovorst is actually one long stretch of false flat, but via Kimpestraat you come from the side and first have a few hundred metres that can almost be called climbing. Otherwise, a pleasant low-traffic road for cycling.... read more

Leuke variant van de Rovorst. De Rovorst is eigenlijk één lang stuk vals plat, maar via de Kimpestraat kom je van opzij en heb je eerst nog een paar honder meter dat bijna klimmen kan genoemd worden. Voorts een aangename verkeersluwe weg om te fietsen.
