The hill regularly features in the Flemish cycling races in spring. In 2014 the climb made its first appearance in the Tour of Flanders, in the roadbook just immediately before the second ascent of the Oude Kwaremont. The climb is also regularly included in the Three Days of De Panne, Halle–Ingooigem and occasionally in the Eneco Tour.
