Nice is a global city, rich in history and culture and a popular retreat for the rich and famous. The city is also a hotspot for cyclists from every discipline. Professional cyclists like Peter Sagan ride along the promenade, whilst a haven for mountain bikers lies in the mountains just beyond the city. In this Collection, former pro-enduro rider Mary Moncorgé introduces you to these mountains and the trails of her homeland.
As you head inland into the mountains from the French Riviera, a completely different world opens up before you with traditional mountain villages and ancient, dusty trails. It’s a stark contrast to the fast-paced glamour of the Côte d'Azur. This is the home of Mary Moncorgé. Surrounded by countless single tracks, she found it challenging to choose the ones to include in this adventure: "We have great trails here, but some are extremely difficult and not suitable for all riders,” she said. She opted for a route that is great fun for those exploring the Alpes-Maritimes for the first time. “This route suits everyone’s taste. It’s representative of the area and, at the same time, it’s not too difficult.”
With views from the top of the mountain to the Mediterranean Sea, the dry, dusty trails are awesome for all levels of riders. Tired, smiling and covered in dust from the trails, you will end up asking yourself why you need a car at all when you can also ride an E-MTB?
Hoewel de drukte van Nice en Monaco slechts een klein eindje rijden verwijderd zijn, is het bergdorp waar Mary Moncorgé haar route begint rustig. Er is daar een uitstekende bakker voor een hapje voor de rit en een bar in de schaduw van de kerk waar je na de rondleiding kunt aanschuiven voor een drankje…
