The path is difficult to use by bike on busy days, especially in summer. Constant attention is required to avoid collisions with the many users and modes of transport (pedestrians, rollerbladers, sport cyclists, scooters, etc.). Ride slowly.

Isn't the track too crowded in spring and summer? In other words, is it possible to ride there without being too disturbed during the reported peaks?
