Nice 20km hilly and in places technical MTB ride around Figaniere near Draguignan. However there was a 30Km and 40Km. But advised from previous experience that the 20Km was sufficiently challenging and the other distances maybe too difficult. The first 10Km was mainly up hill and challenging in places with a few technical areas. The weather was very pleasant in the region of 25C and made it a great mornings activity.

The 23km MTB ride was 2hrs 10mins at a speed of around 11kph and an elevation of 420m. This was followed by a lovely lunch at a friend house in lovely weather.

As shown below in the article in Var Matin there were more than 600 participants, so a very popular MTB event in the region
