• This seems as good a place to ask...

    Have two weeks in the Alps coming up and bafflingly booked my flight to Geneva a day before I should have. This means I have around 24 hours free before my partner arrives. I've booked a hotel in Versoix for the night and was considering a very early start to do the 175km round Lac Léman. I read some positive words about the route, but (dated in fairness) street view imagery makes it look like it could be a bit faffy with a decent amount of traffic. Has anybody done the route?

    Alternative is a climb into the Jura which will be quieter, but I will have two weeks with no option but to climb, so thinking a flat lake route would make a nice gentle intro.

  • I did, but it was the early days, so we only did Geneva to Lausanne. Which, at the time, seemed pretty damned epic.

    There are better routes out there, I'd say, unless doing a lap of the lake means a great deal by itself. Otherwise, it's not that good a ride.
