Cap Canaille loop

one of the most spectacular road-bike climbs + descents anywhere. Great views of sea + rocks in three directions. Has very steep sections at west end coming up from Cassis. For more info see www.roberts-1.com/b/x/fr -- Loop goes from Cassis to la Ciotat on the Route des Cretes and returns on the D141 + D559 -- so two major climbs: one steep, one moderate. Route des Cretes is sometimes closed for high winds. Sharon + I first rode it in 2006, then checked it on a rainy day again in 2009.by AmericanTourist
