Have to watch the timings now as it is getting dark by 20h30 although not too bad in the city with the neon lights so pretty.
Ride up to Mont Thou by the route du Genie. The climb from Couzon is steep but the Genie is a nice, rolling 3% gradient. Got overtaken by a guy on an old mountainbike. It has come to that. Then tempo to the summit du Mont Thou for the view. It is about 35 minutes to the top of Mont Thou from Couzon for 550 minutes of climbing for a VAM of 700. Oh I got a PR on it too.
Reasonably warm, very clear at the summit. Lots of group rides out and about.
