Trois jours à vélo pour découvrir Dijon et Beaune. Les trajets dans les vignes sont magnifiques et assez sportifs. Une belle expérience que nous n’oublierons pas.Aucun problème avec l’organisation, ça aide à profiter pleinement de ces moments là. C’était notre première expérience avec rando vélo, rien à dire depuis le premier contact par téléphone jusqu’au taxi à la fin de notre périple.
