Not very interesting, except for fans of wooden crates. The climb starts in front of the factory. Clean road. Gentle gradients. No traffic.... read more

Not very interesting, except for fans of wooden crates. The climb starts in front of the factory.
Clean road. Gentle gradients. No traffic.

Pas grand intérêt sauf pour les passionnés de caisses en bois. La « montée » commence devant la manufacture.
Route propre. Pourcentages faibles. Pas de circulation.
