You certainly are able to seek out the good roads Ludwig. Not that it is desperately hard in the Cevennes.
The photos bring back memories of a trip I did last year when I rented a Gite in Chamborigaud, just down the road from the Col Pre de la Dame.
It is certainly France Profond around there.
Friends who live in the Auvergne near Le Puy are a reason to go that way, and cutting down through the Cevennes, across the river and into the Vercor, (lots of lovely roads there too) before heading south and spending time trying the southern Rhone wines, which just happen to be among my favourites. The spice and body of syrah, the fruit of grenache, mmmm.
I have been back from the Luberon a couple weeks. Outside of the school holidays there is certainly great scope for exploring the near empty roads. Even the popular places are near empty, so it was easy to get into good restaurants, or even sitting on the terrace, it was warm enough!
Bon Route.
