A gravel ride that turned into a 90% asphalt ride.
This wasn't the originally planned route: when I arrived in Torsac, I had a transmission problem. After a long break, I decided to head towards La Couronne train station to minimize my return trip by bike. Too bad, as I wanted to explore some paths and

A pleasant ride, 99% asphalt. Passing through quiet urban streets in Angoulême, easy trails in the Bois Blanc forest, and quiet country roads. On the menu: two churches, beautiful, easy trails, cliffs, a castle, and several historical monuments.

A 90% asphalt route through the Compiègne Forest.
It passes through the three forest villages (Pierrefonds, Saint-Jean-aux-Bois, and Vieux-Moulin), and follows part of the EV3, which uses the old towpaths of the Oise River.
Apart from a 2.3 km gravel section (hard earth, roots, and large gravel), the majority

Short, super-easy 80-20 gravel ride.
No particular difficulty.
Passing two churches and war memorials in the villages crossed in the Retz Forest (Haramont, Vez, and Bonneuil-en-Valois).

A not too long walk between Montmoreau and Pérignac.
A stop at the Saint-Gilles fountain, which is usually reached on foot, although it is still possible by bike with the right equipment.
The Saint-Gervais - Saint-Protais Church in Pérignac was worth the detour; it was the goal of the walk.
I was able to

An 80% asphalt gravel route.
The goal was to observe the castles of La Faye and La Léotardie.
A complete disappointment: the castle of La Faye is not accessible from close up by public roads. I saw very little of it, and from very far away. I didn't even want to take a photo... As for the castle of La
