Back from vacation and after a month without cycling, it's time to get moving again.
Nothing planned, we'll keep it simple and head off on a familiar route, the classic Ourcq/Marne combo. The landscapes have been seen and seen again, but I'm motivated by a carrot at the end of the road: the desire to

Yes, we're returning to the banks of the Yerres, but this time, we're heading to the previously unexplored section.
I was already familiar with the Villeneuve-Saint-Georges - Boussy-Saint-Antoine section, but I hadn't gone any further yet.
The idea for this route came to me from Adrien de Odos's "Les gu

But also religious buildings and retina-destroying panoramas.
My driving force is discovering things to see. And, on this occasion, I've been spoiled.
Having explored the length and breadth of the outskirts of Paris, I'm having trouble motivating myself.
The solution: expand the perimeter. I've had this

Today I'm taking the Bikettes to discover some must-see spots in the southwest region around Paris.
An outing that combines discoveries made during several excursions, plus an extension in "new" mode.
A varied route that's sure to amaze.
Today's itinerary:
- the Bois de Boulogne
- the Avre footbridge

@Jerin, a colleague from Bikettes, is offering those who are motivated a loop of the Ourcq-Marne Canal with a connection via the Promenade de la Dhuis.
I know the route by heart, having done it dozens of times, so at first glance, I'm not particularly keen.
What's more, the region is on yellow alert for

It's Saturday, it's hot, and the trend is more toward making Turkish delight on the couch than going out to exercise.
No outing planned for tomorrow with the Bikettes. But what? Are we going to stew in the apartment?
No way!
Without hesitation, I make a small, carefully planned trail that I suggest to the

After the reconnaissance in April with Michael de Ville Hybride and @lpietri, on a map of the latter, the day of the official launch arrived.
A great success, with 60 people attracted by this offer.
A magnificent day with a great atmosphere.
On the agenda for today's discoveries:
- the banks of the Seine

A few kilometers to reach Limoges train station, where my journey ends.
The Vélidéale continues for another 80 km to Lake Vassivières, but the heat and the elevation gain aren't very motivating, especially since I'd already passed the lake in September.
The official route suggests doing the route in the

Jerin, collègue des Bikettes, propose aux motivés une boucle canal de l'Ourcq-Marne avec un raccord par la promenade de la Dhuis. Je connais le trajet par coeur, l'ayant fait des dizaines de fois, donc de prime abord je ne suis pas plus emballé que ça. De plus, la région est en vigilance jaune pour orages et la météo s'annonce humide. A priori ce sera sans moi. Sauf que, une petite voix me dit que ça peut être intéressant en mode "test condition pluvieuse" et les 4 compères qui se sont manifestés présagent d'une ambiance sympa. Le dimanche arrive et la pluie est là au réveil. Les prévisions météo ont un peu changé et, même si la matinée prévoit une bonne douche, je pressens que le soleil va s'inviter dans la journée. Je file donc au point de départ pour faire la surprise aux vayants téméraires chasseurs d'orages. La pluie ne tarde pas à redoubler, voire tripler, et nous sommes rapidement trempés jusqu'aux orteils. D'autant plus que je reste en t-shirt, préférant la pluie à la transpiration. Mais la température est agréable et ce n'est pas si terrible que ça. Le passage par la Dhuis et les champs entre l'Ourcq et la Marne font patiner les pneus à plusieurs reprises. Recouverts de boue, nous sommes tous fin prêts pour un défilé de mode spécial gravel. Vers midi, comme pressenti, le soleil fait son apparition. Le retour le long de la Marne nous permettra donc de sécher. Au final, je n'ai vraiment pas regretté, ce mini challenge était intéressant et la bonne humeur du groupe a permis de passer un bon moment. (Temps de déplacement : 4h05 ; 18,7 km/h)

There are days like that, when the drizzle forecast by Météo France turns into heavy rain and doesn't exactly encourage you to venture outside.
These days are becoming increasingly frequent in winter, not to mention the night that arrives just in time for afternoon tea.
Fortunately, in anticipation of
