Exploring the forests outside of Paris (Trek Roscoe 8)

After spending the last few years on a gravel bike (Triban RC 520), I recently made the transition to the Roscoe and I'm so glad that I did. It's so capable and forgiving. I also feel much more comfortable and confident, like I can climb up anything, push through anything, and roll down anything.Yesterday it was pouring rain in the Montmorency forest and I was just plowing through it all.

But damn is it slow on perfectly paved smooth roads 😅
