The ride
Roll out of Sossay and the ride opens through the Loire-Anjou-Touraine nature reserve before the Château du Chillou appears along the way. The route then follows La Vienne and later passes the Château de La Barbelinière. With 505 m of climbing across 76.9 km, it's a steady day in the saddle that loops you back to where you started.
