The route

This 14.5km-long stage takes the old track of the Aérotrain transformed into a greenway from Limours to Bonnelles. It continues on quiet shared roads.

Pay attention when you enter Bonnelles, there is not a lot of traffic but vehicles can drive fast. Watch out using the RD988 on 200m before joining a quiet road (improvements to come). 

Few small slopes but nothing unbearable on this stage.
