Roll out of Mios on a route that stays paved the whole way, with just 133 m of climbing across 75.5 km. The road soon brings you past the river La Gourgue, then follows on to L'Eyre, both flowing quietly alongside the ride. With every metre paved, you can settle into a steady rhythm and let the kilometres tick by. The loop then turns you back toward Mios, where the ride began.
