Hello, I was inspired by these tracks for a road bike ride. I had to dismount to cross the Renâcle peninsula, the footbridge, and reach Espinet beach. Otherwise, it was a very pleasant ride on quiet, quiet roads. Thanks to the trackers.

Beautiful asphalt road, in the Rance valley, between Saint-Étienne-de-Maurs and Roannes-Saint-Mary. Numerous signs, intended for cyclists, announcing the difference in altitude have been installed on the shoulders. In the fall, watch out for chestnuts on the road!
