If I lived closer, I'd invite myself to join you.

You'd love it. There is climbing both ways but most of it on the way out. It was always a light traffic road but during the pandemic and lockdowns the race cars really started coming. Hopefully the novelty will wear off.

There was a cafe but it closed in 2020. The road doesn't have anything steep, just lots of up and down.
