    traffic around Nice can be crazy so take care. Think about using the train to get your bike about. The road to Entrevaux is a fast road for cars and a long drag uphill. Col d'Eze is good and the road to Villefranche and onto Monaco via Menton. The Madone and La Turbie are two major climbs. A decent map and a train timetable may be useful
