    From Panache in La Roche we will be riding two very nice routes in the Belgian Ardennes. This big trip is named after the Champagne species with a very sweet character, the "DOUX". And that's what this one should be called, not as intense as the BRUT and the DEMI-SEC but certainly as challenging! We go in 2 days time for 220km and 3900hm!
