The ride
Roll out of Le Donjon and let the ride unfold past the Château de Jaligny, then follow La Besbre as it runs alongside the route. The Château de Beauvoir and the Ruisseau de Charnay keep you company before the Château de Saligny and the Château des Millets round things off. With 72.8 km ahead, it's a steady loop that brings you back to where you started.
