Behind les Voirons ride report

Ride: les Voirons via Bonne

Ride posted 27 June: BoumBoum and Limoncello started on the banks of la Menoge up to Bonne, then up to the top of Les Voirons. A nice pause for a snack, and then a great downhill to reach Annemasse and go to douane de Fossard all along the Foron.

Stats:

  • 54 km
  • 1420m up
  • 4h on the bike


Highlights:

  • Some have ridden the banks of la Menoge in the current direction and it is up, down, left, right all along for 3 km ich. We did it the opposite way and went up to Bonne, which none had done before. This was really cool.
  • Going up les Voirons via Bonne, we met at some stage migrants from the bois de Jussy, namely starving mosquitoes, although it (fortunately) only was for a section of the uphill.
  • Great downhill in the Voirons, dry and beautiful
  • Nice "dérapage" from BoumBoum while going underneath the bridge to cross the Annemasse-Thonon road. Not that often that I can see him grounded.
  • Going all along the Foron to Fossard, which included some climbing over fence and bridge
  • All together, a really nice MTB day


Points:

  • Participants: BoumBoum, Limoncello
  • Host: Limoncello
  • Mother nature: Scenery/landscape, sun and temperature, tracks, etc … 10 points
