As already in March 2022 (Combe Laval on an electric rental tandem) we came to the Vercors without our own Tandem, and the one for rent up here comes with electric assistance.

We took this as an opportunity for a tour we wouldn't have tackled on this humid winter day without a little extra help.

We start out with a descent of the Gorges d'Engins followed by a long flat stretch on the Isère cycling path.

After a coffee stop in Cognin les Gorges we head up the D22 which listed on dangerousroads.org as a 'defiant balcony road' to the Gorges du Nan. Some incredible drone footage.

Behind the village of Malleval we cross Col du Mont Noir (1421m), and Col de Romeyere (1068m) before a beautiful descent in the evening light to La Balme a Rencurel.

From there, a short climb in the Gorges de la Bourne brings us back to Villard de Lans on the Plateau du Vercors.

Nous n'aurons surement pas faits les 98 km avec 1825m de dénivelée ce jour humide d'hiver sans la batterie de 1000 Wh du Tandem Moustache Samedi 27 x2 de location. |
