Moderate (longer): Loop à l'Onnion

A longer moderate ride (note the 0830 start time) with more climbing, going all the loong way around the back of the vallée verte, col de Jambaz and an amazing descent through Mégevette and Onnion. It'll be cold in the morning, therefore climbing steadily for the first ~60km makes total sense(?).
Expect: changes of plan, splitting and regrouping, mutinous coffee stops, amazing views, delayering/relayering ad nauseam.
Don't expect: a predictable return time to Geneva.

The pace will be moderate, probably ~21kmh ish or less given the climbing. (This is not an ideal first moderate ride).
