The Dijon Ventoux! Well, if you only want to climb Mount Africa once, choose Marsannay as your starting point. If you're from Dijon, do all 4 options. But if you're from Dijon, you already know! One of the few slightly long climbs around Dijon. The road is good and the antenna is of dubious but interesting design...... read more

Le Ventoux des Dijonnais ! Bon, si vous ne souhaitez le grimper qu’une fois ce Mont Afrique, choisissez plutôt Marsannay comme point de départ.
Si vous êtes Dijonnais, faites les 4 options. Mais si vous êtes Dijonnais, vous le savez déjà ! Une des rares côtes un peu longues autour de Dijon. La route est bonne et l’espèce d’antenne est d’un design douteux mais intéressant…
