Description

Second trip to the Tete d'Or park. Not many people on a Thursday afternoon, just a few nasty dags who don't like rollerskiers but are ok with bikes and runners. Luckily they are on a lead  but barely controlled by their owners. Went the opposite way round, not sure it makes a difference. There is a slight descent to start then a climb past the botanic gardens and the Tonkin entrance before a descent back to the lake and a short climb to the main gates. However we are talking a few meters, not an alpine pass.

Conditions

In between showers. Some debris from the trees: twigs and chestnuts. Wet on the ground, had to clean rollers when I got back.
