Drinking water is mapped at 11 points; the longest stretch without is 36.4 km (km 81.3–117.7).

Places are from OpenStreetMap within 60 m of the route (300 m for a landmark such as a château or museum), and climbs from the modelled profile. Nothing here is checked on the ground and opening hours are not known. A good place to stop has food and water or toilets together, nearest the middle of the ride.
