Sunday, June 6, after two hard days earlier, an easier route is necessary.
This route, which I unearthed on Openrunner, will in fact be the best, in the opinion of all.
..................................
After twenty kilometers quiet (and thanks to the enchanting Dourbie villages ST VERAN the mill CORP), we here in LA ROQUE STE MARGUERITE. From the map, I know that one must turn right and attack a hill, but I do not see a crossroads.
A glance at my GPS: oops!
is no longer on track !
The turn is laborious, no one knows the region and yet many run at full speed in mind, we must remember, their running back, some miss the call ...
........................................
Always thanks to my GPS, we find the small road that winds. First, a serious side (and picturesque) 3 km to over 8%, lined ravines, followed by a more gentle slope of 5 km at 4%.
We drive for 20 km then the Black Causse, very little rugged, with beautiful landscapes (dolmens, menhirs), we leave to our left LANUEJOLS, 208 inhabitants, in Lozère, down towards the south.
.................................
At km 47, we discuss a raid of 6 km. must still say that in this region runs free do not exist, there are always bumps to climb (see profile) ...
The weather is getting worse, a fine drizzle appeared.
................................
A TREVES, it was planned to continue south and climb the Col de la Pierre Planted, 5 km to 6%. Everyone looks, we hesitate because of the descent may be dangerous in the rain.
Come on, you turn right, there are only 15 km to ING.
.................................
This detour will allow us to pass Cantobre, a small medieval village. We decide to stop there.
Henry, who knows the place, watching the bikes, we can borrow up to the narrow lanes leading to the church.
..................................
This setback, we have not regretted it, forcing us to endure the rain has intensified, fortunately there are only 5 km to go. Good shower, a little bit of cloth on the bike, it was close!
