The ride
Roll out of Nuces and follow the route past the river L'Ady and on to Le Créneau, with the Dourdou de Conques never far from the pedals. Four castles line the way — Canac, Floyrac, Vabre and Cougousse — each one a marker on an 87.9 km loop that climbs 1407 m in total. The surface stays paved the whole way round, so the focus is on the riding and the landmarks. Back to Nuces to close the loop.
