The way points of this bicycle route:
Nice warmup. flat route in beautiful green countryside
Absolutely beautiful village, rebuilt in recent years.
leaving Daglan. Heading on the D60 to StPompont
slightly rising gradient , in abeautiful valley
Just outside SaintPompont turn left
Beautiful rolling, but mainly downhill, be careful on some of the descents, some tight corners and usually gravel about.
Join the D2 into Salviac
Lovely town with some wonderful cafes.
Stood here 11 years ago and watched Bjarne Riis on his way to beating Big Mig!
Nice surface but can get alittle busy. now heading to Gourdon
The busiest part of the road. Now approaching quite a climd into Gourdon.
Be careful in the busy narrow streets.
Take aleft at first Major roundabout in the town
very steep descent out of Gourdon
After a few km of up and down it becomes a pretty fast run into Groejeac.
Turn left onto the wonderful D50. Quite a climb heading eventually up to Domme airport.
A real apline climb with swtichbacks.
Quite apull as my yorkshire mate Bob says!
At the top. You can continue on D50 over the top. we take aright here and avoid the very steep descent.
Views are magnificent
very fast descent here, some tricky corners
Half way down, look out for joing main road. Take a sharp left up to the beautiful bastide town of Domme.
Be very careful entering through the portcullis. One way takes you left and you need to be in bottom gear. 100m at 25% with usually a car at your backside and pedestrians in front!
You must stop at the top at the viewing point. The Dordogne at its best, breathtaking views. This makes all the hard work worth it. We usually fill our drinks bottles at the cafe to the right of the viewing point, very helpful!
straight across at the crossroads at the bottom. Be careful VERY busy!
Very fast descent down into Cenac. Over taking cars , great fun!
start of 2.5 km climb. Last of the day before 3km descent back to Saint-Cybranet!
Past our beloved hotel Beau Rivage, wher we have spent ours and drank quite afew beers watching the tour. very good food!
Heaven on Earth!
