Boucle classique avec quelques détours pour ajouter du dénivelé (chemin pavé à Mauves, côte du Cellier et la plus terrible des trois, la côte de la Bridonnière). Petit passage par la tombe et l'ancienne résidence du grand Louis de Funès.

De magnifiques paysages tout au long de cette boucle courte mais assez exigeante, avec des passages à la limite du VTT.

A lovely walk through the vineyards, under a beautiful sun, finally leading up to the Moulin du Pé after passing by it so many times.
However, there was a tremendous amount of wind (60 km/h) and a lot of mud on the paths. But I'm sure you already know that 😊

Perfect day for cycling. Bright atmosphere, pleasant temperature and moderately strong south wind.

A very poor choice of destination for this first ride back after the holiday break. It's not very visible in the photos, but it was absolute pea soup fog with bitterly cold weather between Ancenis and Champtoceaux. The puddles on the paths were even frozen. A huge temperature shock compared to the 9°C and sunshine in Nantes.

Une boucle assez roulante dans l'ensemble, pour faire des bornes sans trop de voitures, sans rapporter un kilo de boue à la maison pour autant. Assez peu de chemins et beaucoup de mono-routes de campagne. La distance indiquée est correcte mais le dénivelé est fantaisiste : le garmin indique 430 m, ce qui me paraît plus conforme.

I wasn't very enthusiastic when I checked the weather this morning, but it turned out to be great. Pleasant temperature, no wind at all, and plenty of sunshine. The clear blue sky I could see in the distance towards the coast was quite tempting, but unfortunately, I no longer had time for a 60-kilometer detour.

Boucle Loire à Vélo classique par Mauves sur Loire avec une petite rallonge jusqu'à la Varenne, histoire de rajouter un peu de dénivelé et de chemins (très boueux à cette période).

Having set off in the rain, I had resigned myself to going no further than Mauves, but finally a ray of sunshine (not two!) on the Mauves bridge remotivated me to continue to La Varenne to add a bit of elevation gain and more trails. The elevation gain wasn't a bad idea, but the trails... well, you have to like mud.

Boucle en suivant la Loire à Vélo rive gauche jusqu'à la Varenne puis un détour essentiellement route à travers les Mauges jusqu'à la Remaudière. Petit passage gravel (sur herbe en fait) puis retour par le Loroux et Concelles pour finir par la Loire à Vélo rive droite. Sortie très roulante et sans difficulté. Très peu de voitures. Le dénivelé véritable est de 350 m.

A pleasant ride under a beautiful sun. I was lucky enough to avoid a squall that passed south of Nantes.
If you want to cover some ground without getting muddy or breathing in exhaust fumes, this route is great.

A bit chilly at first, then pleasant under the beautiful sun. No wind.

Au programme Marais de la Roche, Grande Prairie de Rohars, Lavau, le Trou Bleu, Marais du Syl, Cordemais et Marais Audubon. Du vrai vélo d'aventure, uniquement gravel/VTT. Compliqué à faire en hiver. A faire impérativement à marée basse et marée descendante pour éviter les mauvaises surprises (je parle d'expérience).

Beautiful sunshine for this long hike in the estuary. We're entering the period when this type of trail becomes a bit risky. I'd made sure to schedule the outing for low tide, but I still ended up getting a few wet feet and a free mud bath. A magnificent route, but quite demanding (muddy) once you're in the estuary.

A magnificent day. Sunshine and no wind, a rare occurrence since the beginning of the year.
I spiced up the classic loop with a few climbs to work on my core strength 😀 All joking aside, it's mainly to maintain some semblance of fitness before the arrival of spring and longer rides, and to vary the scenery
