It's not the most exciting climb in the Sancerrois region. Apart from the somewhat tough central section, the rest is really easy. There's not a lot to fascinate you along the way. The road is in decent condition. At the top, sad fields.... read more

Here we cross a tiny piece of Berry. A few thatched cottages with old stones to start with, giving us a glimpse of the warmth of an open fire on this wintry December day. We crank up the pedals to rekindle the inner fire that keeps cyclists going as they tackle the hills, no matter how insignificant, in all weathers.
It's nothing out of the ordinary'just country simplicity, a gentle slope and a few dozen metres at just 15%, enough for a quick sweat.
We pass a large tractor, with whom we say hello. You always feel very small, on a bike, in front of these giant toys.
At the finish, the hills of the Sancerre region curve the sky, the mist deposited here and there transforming the vines into watercolours.

Ici, nous traversons un tout petit morceau de Berry. Quelques chaumières aux vieilles pierres pour commencer, laissant entrevoir la chaleur d’un feu de cheminée en ce jour de décembre vêtu d’hiver. On active le pédalier pour rallumer le petit feu intérieur qui anime les cyclistes à l’assaut des côtes, même anodines, par tous temps.
Rien d'extraordinaire, une simplicité de campagne, une pente douce et quelques dizaines de mètres à tout juste 15%, suffisamment pour une petite suée.
On croise un grand tracteur, avec qui on se salue. On se sent toujours très petit, à vélo, face à ces jouets géants.
À l’arrivée, les collines du Sancerrois courbent le ciel, la brume déposée ici et là transforme les vignes en aquarelle.

Ce n’est pas la montée la plus excitante du Sancerrois. Mis à part le tronçon central un peu sévère, le reste est vraiment facile. Pas grand chose de bien fascinant en chemin. La route est dans un état correct. Elle est évidemment très calme. En haut, des champs tristes.
