The Nesque gorges are breathtaking views, a long but very gentle and gradual climb, asphalt of impeccable quality. A dream route that fulfills all the wishes of the happy cyclist one by one. You can't get enough of these gorges.

You see it soon enough and it's always beautiful. And when you're already at the top, you remember the pain and hope that the wind doesn't come from the front on the last 6km from Reynard ,-)

on August 2nd, 2021 ... of all my rides on the Ventoux, as of today there are 9, this is the most spectacular, the most fulfilling. Even if the gravel section is relatively short, it is like another world, the views are unexpected and surprising. The tour that will always be in my memory, even if one day I will …

Finally. Perfect conditions: great weather, little motorized traffic. Lots of bikers. We got dry on the last eight kilometers. No wonder when someone is constantly pointing a 32-degree hairdryer in your face. The descent on this route is a hit. Hopefully it won't be the last time. Thanks to @SK for the tour suggestion.
