It starts off very smoothly in the valley, but things get tougher after the first left-hand hairpin. A great way to start a day in the Forez region above Thiers.

Le début est très roulant type vallée mais les choses se corsent après la première épingle à gauche. Très bien pour commencer une journée dans le Forez au dessus de Thiers.
