The two s-turns are cobblestones. Not the kind we know from the Flemish classics. These lie better. The street is packed with cars. In terms of gradient, it is not too difficult and after the two cobbled corners you are presented with reasonably nice asphalt, albeit on a busy road that etches up valsplat. The cobbles give this slope charm, as there is little to nothing else to do.... read more

The two s-turns are cobblestones. Not the kind we know from the Flemish classics. These lie better. The street is packed with cars. In terms of gradient, it is not too difficult and after the two cobbled corners you are presented with reasonably nice asphalt, albeit on a busy road that etches up valsplat. The cobbles give this slope charm, as there is little to nothing else to do.

De twee s-bochten zijn kasseien. Niet het soort dat we kennen uit de Vlaamse klassiekers. Deze liggen beter. De straat is vol geparkeerd met auto’s. Qua hellingsgraad is het niet al te lastig en na de twee bochten met kasseien krijg je redelijk mooi asfalt voorgeschoteld, weliswaar op een drukke weg die valsplat omhoog ettert. De kasseien geven deze helling charme, want verder is er weinig tot niets te beleven.
