2021: Opening of the SR du Désert (route created by Sophie Matter), the first French SR with unpaved roads. It is located in a sparsely populated area, that stretches between Drôme, Hautes-Alpes and Alpes de Haute-Provence. It includes 210 km of dirt roads, and uses about twenty unpaved passes.
Oh that looks good.
Also: For comfort, a telescopic fork and straight handlebars may be beneficial; but once again, it all depends on your sporting profile and your desires.
