riding up the couillole and descending via the gorges du cians
spectacular route, I haz goosebumps just thinking about
#edit 17 years ago I was here
-
i did it as a loop from nice including the col de la colmiane - a 200k DIY audax earlier this year which may not be exactly what you're looking for
for the braus - i'd recommend somewhere up here on this stretch - you'll get a great view over the switchbacks below
Id highly recommend riding up the couillole and descending via the gorges du cians off the back side of the climb if you do go, it's one of my favourite descents in the area through a beautiful gorge down to rigaud and the var valley
