Hills between Laignes and Armançon

The ride

Roll out of Molesme and follow the Laignes river out into open country. The route soon picks up the Armançon, then swings past the Château de Tanlay, a castle that anchors the middle of the ride. On the way back you trace the old bed of the Armançon and the Sarce river before rolling into Molesme again, with 791 m of climbing spread across the loop.
