Outstanding low traffic roads.  Excellent ride.

Entire ride was excellent low traffic road with wonderful scenery. 

Today's route was exceptional.  All roads were outstanding low traffic roads with beautiful scenery and vistas. Make sure that you do not miss riding through the Gorges de Galamus. (cloned from route 2307970)
