No snow for cross country so a little cycle ride to blow out the work cob webs. I decided to go out to the Monts de Lyonnais via the Malval col as I remembered the climb as not being too steep, about 6%. Still moderately hard with my winter bike and its gearing. The Michelin Liothion tires were excellent on the descent which was a bit damp and rough.
Started off warm with sun in town but 7C and grey on the cols.
