Roll out of Pouilly-sur-Loire and let the ride unfold: first past the Réserve naturelle du Val de Loire, then along the river at Le Mazou, and by the Château du Nozet before the loop brings you home. Of the 59.5 km, most run unpaved, with 470 m of climbing spread along the way. It's a route that keeps changing under your wheels and in front of your eyes.
