Brilliant descent from the town of Herbouvilliers to the church of Choisel which, in addition to being perfectly asphalted, can be hurtled down in a "full gas" draft without even having to touch the brakes as the turns are soft (at the end of the road). opposite of the 7-Turns for example ...). Very little traffic, although at the exit of the famous Château de Breuteuil. And much less steep than the alternative, the wall of Choisel resembles a ski jump, more fun to climb than to descend. The descent of Herbouvilliers or route des Sablières is the equivalent of the chocolate cone of an ice cream cone to conclude in style a wooded circuit in the Chevreuse Valley !!
