Difficult route if you are there to ride. I do not recommend it to cyclists other than touring cyclists.

A lovely walk reminiscent of the old route of the Bievres Valley. Luckily, we avoided the extension of the A10 to the ring road! A fun route, but watch out for pedestrians and cross streets...

Complicated start and finish of the race (path difficult to navigate for road bikes, and traffic jam on VSG) Middle of the race rather pleasant with long straight and flat sections.
