Now that we have mountain bikes, we try to go out for rides at least three times a week in order to be fit, to clean our heads and free our souls from the stress of modern life...
Generally, we do 1h30 rides around the countryside that surrounds our village and go in the direction of Compesières/La Croix-de-Rozon which are very close to the French border and the Salève mountain. The landscapes in that area are simply stunning. It is such a pastoral and peaceful place!
I hope you'll enjoy the pictures I took last Saturday afternoon...
Yes I enjoyed the pictures, Wish I could be there...Nice feeling of peace, just beautiful!
