Having done most of the routes recommended by ridersrest I agree with all his comments. The guy knows what he is on about. As a slight deviation from his route (found accidentally after getting lost)After leaving Argantat you hit the N120.Turn left for ten miles then right onto the D41 through to Beaulieu_Sur-Dordogne. The D41 is 16 miles of real twisty tarmac without traffic. Mind you if you get lost in this area it doesn't really matter.

Stopping at Argentat for Lunch then on through some winding roads and picturesque villages - along the Dordogne. before once again picking up some open country and fast twisties. You do have to cut through Brive however it is worth the effort to get to the D920 however if you want to byepass Brive drop onto the A20 (Non Toll) for a couple of junctions and get off at Donzenac to continue the route.
