The monster of the Cévennes!!! From the Mairie de Mandagout, keep your foot under it until you reach the lace at the water tank, and after that, the laces in the open and then in the forest, under the Cap de Côte, are murder! 3km at an average of 12-13％, with ramps at 17 and 18％ ... Infernal, fortunately the last 3km are more rolling!!! There's everything in this Lusette, the majestic setting and the view of the Cevennes then the steep climb!... read more

Le monstre des Cévennes !!! Depuis la Mairie de mandagout, gardez en sous le pied jusqu'au lacet de la cuve a eau, et ensuite, les lacets a découvert puis dans la foret, sous le Cap de Côte, sont assassins ! 3km à 12-13％ de moyenne, avec des rampes a 17 et 18％ ... Infernal, heureusement que les 3 derniers kilomètres sont plus roulants !! Il y'a tout dans cette Lusette, le cadre majestueux et la vue sur les cevennes puis le raide !
