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.

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 beautiful day for cycling, despite a south wind that, while warm, was fierce, especially in the marsh where there wasn't a single tree to slow it down. The scenery was magnificent as always, with plenty of birds to spot.

A little ritual of a ride through the Muscadet vineyards to enjoy the autumn colors. Unfortunately, I waited too long, and the vines are already quite bare.
The route is still magnificent and highly recommended at this time of year. The Pé de Sèvre - Port Domino - Monnières - Gervaud - Le Pallet section

Another fairly long outing, to go to the Gâvre forest and enjoy the colors of this beautiful Indian summer, which is unfortunately coming to an end. The forest is magnificent, but I didn't follow the path I'd planned and I explored as my inspiration took me, which wasn't always excellent. Let's just

The idea for this outing was to continue my exploration of the V5x cycling route, which connects Montaigu to Saint-Jean-de-Monts (V60) or Bouin (V58).
In short, the day's review: it's still as cool as ever. A route I recommend if you like beautiful rural landscapes. I suspect the person who designed this

Quite a long outing with a significant elevation gain (860 meters according to the Garmin), especially on the way back. Vélodyssée then Régalante on the way out, with lunch by the lake (which is quite dry).
Unfortunately, the abbey was closed when I went there. Apparently, it opens at 3:00 p.m. Check

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.

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).

Longue sortie pour profiter des premières couleurs d'automne dans la forêt du Gâvre. Le détour le long du Gesvres n'est pas très gravel et donc pas indispensable.

Des paysages ruraux magnifiques et quelques jolis villages sur cette assez longue trace. Trace surtout route à l'aller et avec beaucoup plus de chemin gravel au retour. Pas mal de dénivelé, mais bien réparti.

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.
