January 20, 2024,Gravel vers le bord du gave puis Lac de Doazon Retour Fichous Sauvagnon Le Luy Bois de Pau

Tour which starts from Lescar and by the edge of the fairly rolling Gave. Then beautiful gravel sections with fairly steep but short climbs, which go everywhere if you have the legs and it's not too wet. The ending is smoother. The tour involves tracks and small roads generally far from the main roads.
