We did the bike tour in the fall. Because of the wind on Mont Ventoux, it felt even colder than the actual temperature. So, be sure to pack warm clothes; maybe even change your clothes at the summit. It didn't get any warmer during the descent ;). We would have liked to have brought warm gloves. Overall: fantastic!

Great real mountain bike ride. We go up on tracks and trails and then come back down on a very large proportion of single track. Never dangerous but still technical!

One of the almost obligatory attractions of Nyons, with a beautiful view.

The Romanesque bridge of Nyons, which crosses the Eygues River, was built between 1399 and 1400. It was inaugurated in 1409 by the Bishop of Vaison. Its two main architects were Guillaume de Pays, a carpenter from Romans, and Jean Felisson, a stonemason from Saint-Robert de Cornillon. While its construction was relatively rapid, its financing took several decades. A "work of the bridge" was already created in 1341. A first prize was awarded in 1361 to Thibaut de Noyx, but it does not appear that he saw its completion: at the end of the 14th century, the Eygues River was crossed using a ferry. Its single arch is one of the largest in France, with a span of 40.50 m and a height of 19 m. This bridge can be compared to the Pont du Roc in Castellane (Alpes-de-Haute-Provence), built by Jean Felisson around 1405, or the Mollans-sur-Ouvèze bridge (Drôme), which may date back to the early 15th century. Listed as a historical monument since 1925, it is the second bridge in France (after the one in Ceret) of such a pure style.

Arriving up here on my regular touring bike was my personal highlight of 2024. Warm clothing is definitely a plus, at least for the descent. Don't forget it!
