THE SEINE CYCLE ROUTE - PARIS - ROUEN
For fun we started on the Place de la Concorde and then through the Champs Élysées.
The passage through the La Défense district is going smoothly, the cycle route is well secured, but the GPS on the handlebars is unthinkable. The area of the Parvis de la Grande Arche is not marked at all, you have to go by ear, fortunately it’s almost straight.
At the end of the end of Nanterre, you should not take the marked route along the Seine because the "Port de Nanterre" walkway is an aberration "à la Française" with steps. Fortunately, thanks to Google-Street I had anticipated and planned the deviation.
THE SEINE LOOPS - ROUEN-downstream
Wanting to avoid Le Havre, we turned off at Lillebonne to discover the Cliffs of Étretat.
