Sport along the Voie Verte Voie Bleue
Aviron, skateboard…
She settles down gently near the stand‘rowing. Damien from the rowing club explains the basic movements to him “above all, safety on the water and stability. She’s the first one in the afternoon to get started. And like many, she doesn’t necessarily know rowing well. People often confuse it with canoeing.”
Emie, Tom and Leny discover the skateboard avec All Board Family “Be careful, you must not go too fast”. Speed was also discussed at the electric scooter stand. Two drivers just got a little too close “Stay behind each other” insists the club leader.
Electric motorcycles, triathlons…
THE electric motorcycles are also enjoying great success. Léane, 7 years old, has just tried “It’s a little hard but it’s okay.” The triathlon was also possible with the “Voie Verte Voie Bleue” operation “What is difficult is to continue shooting after a sport like cycling, when the hand shakes a little, with fatigue. The performances are no longer the same at all.”
Climbing tours…
THE climbing towers were also very busy. “Come on, gain confidence in yourself, you’ve climbed to the top, you can try to abseil back down. Be very careful with your legs.”
Here are some of the many activities offered during the Voie Verte Voie Bleue operation.
