Although the riders of the Tour de France are coming to Vejle this year, they will not be going up the city's steepest street - which is in fact the steepest street in the whole of Denmark.
Christian Winthersvej has a gradient of up to 25.5 percent, and on the first 160 meters of the climb the average gradient is more than 20. Is it even possible to ride all the way up on a bike no matter which type? That's what is being examined in this brand new video from Christian Winthersvej:

The street will be part of the route of the 2022 edition of the Tour of Denmark (PostNord Danmark Rundt). Presumably, the 160 meters from the start of Christian Winthersvej to the crossing at Gl. Kongevej is the steepest in the UCI calendar of 2022.
