Very uneven ascent on a small road. There are 3 breaks in the slope, with passages of over 20%. The first is very steep. The second is less steep and the last is less steep than the first but lasts a long time. Road in poor condition, with dirt in the middle in some places.... read more

Montée très irrégulière sur une petite route. Il y a 3 ruptures de pente avec des passages à plus de 20%. La première est très raide. La deuxième est moins raide et la dernière est moins raide que la première mais dure longtemps. Route en mauvaise état avec de la terre au milieu à certains endroits
