Road name: Zevenheuvelenweg

The first hump of the Seven Hills Road from Berg en Dal and several more to follow. Runs up nicely, though. At the end, the cycle path turns briefly into a cobbled road and a little further on you have to turn left to continue on the cycle path. There, it is a bit confusing and there is a chance of oncoming traffic.... read more

De eerste bult van de Zevenheuvelenweg vanaf Berg en Dal en er volgen er nog een aantal. Loopt wel lekker op. Op het eind gaat het fietspad even over in een klinkerweg en iets verderop moet je linksaf het fietspad verder vervolgen. Daar is het wat onoverzichtelijk en er is kans op tegenliggers.

It's only 300 metres, so nothing really, but you have to start virtually from standstill because you have to ride and across a bike path and there's a twist in that bike path just before and just after you have to cross a road. If you have the right gear in place then you will have enough speed in time to get to the top easily.

Het is maar 300 meter, dus eigenlijk niks, maar je moet nagenoeg vanuit stilstand beginnen omdat je en over een fietspad moet rijden en er een slinger in dat fietspad zit vlak voor en vlak na je een weg moet oversteken. Als je het goede verzet hebt staan dan heb je op tijd genoeg snelheid om makkelijk boven te komen.

The first hill if you drive the Zevenheuvelenweg from Berg en Dal. You can't cheat on this one by gaining speed on the descent, because you have to cross the Meerwijkselaan in two bends, in a situation that is difficult to oversee. So you have to work hard. Uphill is easy to sprint on the big blade, although at the end you get a strange curve to digest (don't take the inside bend, a cyclist can easily come from the other side). After the summit it is time for the first cheat on this variation of the Seven Hills Road: hard downhill on the bike path.

De eerste heuvel als je de Zevenheuvelenweg rijdt vanuit Berg en Dal. Bij deze kun je niet vals spelen door snelheid te maken bij de afdaling, omdat je met twee bochten de Meerwijkselaan in een onoverzichtelijke situatie moet oversteken. Aanpoten dus. Prima omhoog te sprinten op het grote blad, al krijg je aan het eind een raar bochtje te verteren (neem niet de binnenbocht, er kan makkelijker een fietser van de andere kant af komen). Na de top is het tijd voor de eerste keer vals spelen op deze variant van de Zevenheuvelenweg: keihard naar beneden op het fietspad.
