Quite a long, rolling climb. The road is two lanes and in perfect condition. Ideal for loosening up the legs and putting on the gears as the percentages rarely exceed 5％. Then head towards Nantoux, where the road is superb.... read more

Belle montée roulante et assez longue. La route est à deux voies et dans un état parfait. Idéal pour se débloquer les jambes et mettre du braquet car les pourcentages excèdent rarement les 5％.
Prenez ensuite vers Nantoux la route y est superbe
