Beschreibung
Tom Dumoulin's favorite training climb is the Rue Sur Steppes, a hidden gem in the Ardennes.
You imagine yourself in the Basque country," Dumoulin says to Sporza. "I prefer to train in the Ardennes. I know all the roads in Wallonia. The most beautiful climb is an unknown road, not far from the pilgrimage site of Banneux, in the province of Liège. The Rue sur Steppes hardly knows anyone. It's a very narrow road, but a fantastic climb."
The climb is not called Rue sur Steppes for nothing. It's a four-step climb, very steep, with stretches above 15%. It's actually more beautiful than La Redoute, which is only 10 kilometres away. Actually, the Rue sur Steppes should also be in Liège-Bastogne-Liège. If the organizers see this road, they will be sold immediately. After that we can still go to La Redoute to make the finals a bit harder".
Eli Iserbyt is also no stranger to the Sur Steppes. In fact, he once clocked the fastest time ever recorded on the popular training app Strava during the 2016 Tour of Liège, alongside Quinten Hermans, with a time of 5 minutes and 57 seconds.
"It's one of the climbs I remember so vividly. It's genuinely super tough. Before the Tour of Liège, the team went to scout the climb, and they told us that when you reach the top, there's a house with the number 666, the devil's number. That says a lot about the climb itself," laughs Eli Iserbyt.
