Rondje Château de Montoire en Le Loir

The ride

Roll out of La Chapelle-Gaugain and let the ride unfold: first the river La Braye, then the castle of Lavardin, followed by the castle of Montoire. Further along you meet the Loir and the Veuve rivers, before the castles of la Jaille and Bénéhard line the way and the Étangsort carries you home. It's 73.7 km with 382 m of climbing, and the surface is almost entirely paved, with just a sliver of unpaved track.
