UKD-204 - Trooper Lane
REPETTI M A U R O - 31-01-2022:
Trooper is the KING of cobbled climbs, number ONE in the world without any doubt !! It start with a 14% ramp of cobbles , then turn left on tarmac with a crazy 45% inside the bend !! After passing between some houses slope is 11 - 15 %, but the real fun is about to start when u see the cobbles !!!
Luckily neat and in good condition until top, but very steep ; is already hard ride on cobbles, think when you find the 25 %, and then gets steeper until 30 % (yes, 30 % !!!) after the left bend.
Approaching last left bend, slope go down 20 % and you can see the summit.
One of the most difficult short climb in Europe, atmosphere is wonderful ! a real GEM !
recommended clearly a front compact with at least a 30 in the back.
PS = I climbed with 0 degrees, fortunately almost dry.....in wet condition is possible but difficulty increase a lot !!
