Only scouting by car 3rd week of June 2025
I'd planned to cycle as far as La Saussaz but at the junction with the Col de Beaune towards La Planchette there's a small road with a not very good surface, short walls with very high percentages alternating with gentler sections.
Certainly physically interesting on the way up, much less so on the way down.
Note the goat farm with patous! At the wheel of my car, at slow speed, the biggest of them barked at me, which made it impossible for me to get through on my bike...
Apparently the road above is very steep!
I'll be content with the Col de Beaune for my last ride of the week, and another one a little higher up, the name of which escapes me.
Seulement en repérage en voiture 3ème semaine de juin 2025
J'envisageais éventuellement en vélo jusqu'à la Saussaz mais à l'embranchement col de Beaune vers la Planchette petite route avec un revêtement pas terrible, des murs courts avec très fort pourcentage alternant avec passages moins durs.
Physiquement certainement intéressante en montant, beaucoup moins pour la descente.
A noter un élevage de chèvres avec patous ! Au volant de ma voiture, vitesse lente le plus gros m'a aboyé dessus, rédhibitoire pour moi pour passer en vélo...
Il paraît qu'au dessus la route est très pentue !
Avis aux amateurs, sortie qui peut néanmoins valoir le détour...je me contenterai pour ma dernière sortie de la semaine du col de Beaune et un autre un peu au dessus dont le nom m'échappe.
This summer I also made an attempt. The first 7,5 km are easy to do until the junction to La Planchette, actually you do the climb to the col de Beaune of which the top lies a few hundred meters further on the D219. After that, the steep parts come fast. Until Charbutin, the road is perfect for cycling with a road bike. You can cycle further to La Saussaz but I don't recommend it.
Deze zomer ook een poging ondernomen. De eerste 7,5 km zijn goed te doen tot aan de afslag naar La Planchette, eigenlijk doe je hier de klim naar col de Beaune waarvan de top enkele honderden meters verder op de D219 ligt. Daarna komen de steile stukken er rap aan. Tot Charbutin is de weg perfect te fietsen met een racefiets je kan nog verder fietsen naar La Saussaz maar dat raad ik niet aan.
The last 2 km finish the little energy you have left in your legs, it's cool it makes a good challenge!
Les 2 derniers km achèvent le peu d'énergie qu'il te reste dans les jambes, c'est cool ça fait un bon challenge !
