Le Baiku

[Augustus]

South of France. 40deg. Not a cloud. Day in, day out. Week in week out. Smooth empty roads. Heat. Dry. Mad dogs and Englishmen. Hard climbs lead to stunning views, cooling decents and well earned Oranginas. Love road rides in France. CX tyres on, road off. Forgot what dust was. Happy. So happy. Back to base for swimming in the river and dinner on the terrace. Perfect. Without a doubt, best rides of my life.

Oh how jealous am I? Wales has similar(ish) scenery, problem is I can't see it because of all the rain :?

Local village flea market. Lead figures. Quite cool. Didn't ask how much.

Was staying near St Chinian (between Beziers and Narbonne). That pic is from the top of Le Caroux. 1059m.

Drove over your Millau bridge on the way back. Amazing. Quite stunning.
