A fairly easy climb, but not a very pleasant one as it's in town and there are buses all the time.

Montée plutôt facile mais pas très agréable car en ville et régulièrement des bus.

A very busy road when we passed through, but a pleasant one nonetheless.
Indeed, the profile doesn't correspond to reality, the climb isn't as constant. Strong at the start, flat then we end up with 7/8%.

Route très fréquentée lors de notre passage, mais sympathique malgré tout.
Effectivement, le profil ne correspond pas à la réalité, la montée n'est pas aussi constante. Fort au départ, replat puis on finit avec du 7/8%.

Not a very realistic climb because at the start (at 20% of the climb) there's a passage at 12% which is followed by a false flat so it's not so regular at the start. Don't neglect this point because if you accelerate at the steepest points you'll feel the second part of the climb (experienced with Pily).

ascension pas très réaliste car au début (à 20% de la monté) il y a un passage a 12% qui est suivie d'un faux plat donc elle n'est pas si régulier au début. Ce point n'est pas à négliger car si vous accélère au moment des fort pourcentages vous aller sentir la seconde partie de l'ascension (vécu avec Pily)
