Early in the climb, you can pick up pace on a slightly larger gear. However, in the distance you see the road take a steeper right turn, so you hold back a bit more. As you take that bend, you see the summit a bit further on and think "oh is this it". You can then feel free to shift even bigger since it's nowhere steep. However, I found the worst part the section after this, towards Scherpenheuvel (Oude Tiensebaan). Open plain where I had a headwind and the road keeps going up... read more

However, I found the worst part the section after this, towards Scherpenheuvel (Oude Tiensebaan). Open plain where I had a headwind and the road keeps going up steadily. This is where I gave up the most.

PS: I suspect they forgot the "n" in naming the mountain, Schilleke"n"sberg ;)

Begin van de klim kan je tempo maken op een wat groter verzet. Echter zie je in de verte de weg een steilere bocht naar rechts nemen, dus houd je je nog wat in.
Bij het nemen van die bocht, zie je wat verder de top liggen en denk je "oh is dit het maar". Je kan dan gerust nog groter schakelen aangezien het nergens steil gaat.

Echter vond ik het ergste deel het stuk hierna, richting Scherpenheuvel (Oude Tiensebaan). Open vlakte waar ik wind tegen had en de weg blijft gestaag omhoog gaan. Hier heb ik nog het meeste op afgezien.

PS: Ik vermoed dat ze bij de benaming van de berg de "n" vergeten zijn, Schilleke"n"sberg ;)

This is one to pull a sprint on. Pay attention if you have to go to Scherpenheuvel. It's a long climb, but with a short descent in between.

Dit is er eentje om een sprintje op te trekken. Let op als je nog naar Scherpenheuvel moet. Want dat blijft oplopen, zij het met een korte afdaling ertussen.
