What can I say.. it's so beautiful
Beautiful villages, beautiful paths with a special mention for the Colorado trail!!
2 places on the other hand not very suitable for gravel, very technical with large roots and blocks to jump, just before arriving at Gargas and the other section shortly after Roussillon. Nothing serious, it grows over a hundred meters
