A long boring toll road slog to Beaune today but worth it to get the miles done. Tomorrow is the run to the Eifel so I'll pick non tolls and see where we end up.
Lyons is a nightmare to cross - I had to go into aggressive London rider mode to filter. Cannot understand why we went through the city centre jams and tunnels even though it was all signposted motorway.
Dog destruction carries on unabated at home and Rose wants rid. Anybody want a dog ?
If anybody wondered where all the silver surfers are the answer is - they are over here in their Euro vans in hordes. The campsites are full of old couples nailed together 24/7 trying to sound as if they are not bored with it all.
Good to be on a non English run site and to hear different languages around.I've been rating the various bits of kit I gathered up to bring with me and have come up with 2 categories. Shit and Fantastic.
Shit gets the tent,sleeping bag, that impossible to use liner and disgusting powdered coffee mix.
Fantastic gets the Safesac, camping gas stove, £2 asda saucepan, plastic plate set,snap together cutlery set,instant rice and the li lo and electric pump. Need a chair but too big to strap to bike.
And so on to the next day - on 2 wheels in Germany at last !
