Today’s ride on Komoot What a fantastic day. I was one of only two guests at the place I stayed at in Cabras. It was great, and the included breakfast set me up for the morning. It’s always a nice surprise when a guesthouse includes breakfast. I’m sure they lose money on it when cyclists …
Today’s ride on Komoot I had a great sleep in Cuglieri and knew that there was an easy day ahead – it started with a downhill of about 10kms to the coast. Today’s unknown was where to spend the night. I thought that there’d be plenty of wild camp options near the coast so I …
Today’s ride on Komoot I woke to the sound of rain and wind. It really wasn’t what I was hoping for, but last night, I noticed that the forecast for today had changed. It was more like yesterday – rainy and windy. It certainly started that way. Also, last night, I couldn’t decide where to …
Today’s ride on Komoot I was really concerned about today. For the last few days, the forecast for toda has been for 28mm of rain. That’s more than an inch so it’s significant. Luckily, last night, this was reduced to 19mm and as I was having breakfast, they reduced it even further. Nice ! Unfortunately, …
Last ride for a while. Today was just under 60kms of easy riding to Yves and Danielle’s place in St. Mitre Les Remparts. I’d been there in September catching up with Pete and Marl and half of their family, so it would be nice to see Yves and Danielle again and to catch up with …
Today’s ride on Komoot I stayed in the Royal Hotel in the centre of Nimes. It’s undergoing some renovations but it’s fantastic and quite reasonable. With only a short ride today to Arles, I had some time to visit the Roman Arena. It’s better preserved than the Colosseum because the locals here didn’t mine the …
Today’s ride on Komoot I had a moderate day today. It was more than 60 kms to Nimes but there was nothing strenuous and I’m definitely winding down as this part of the trip comes to an end. Three days to go before a rest. It’s interesting. I wonder if the exhaustion is more mental …
Today’s ride on Komoot Today was colder and I was older, or that’s how it felt. I really had some things to get done this morning. First of all, I didn’t know where t was going in any detail, I had no accommodation booked, and I didn’t know what the weather was going to do. …
Today’s ride on Komoot I stayed at a nice hotel in Beziers, except that the room was on the third floor up the stairs. After a days ride, you just don’t feel like lumping all of your gear up three flights of stairs. It had a great view to the park and up the wide …
Today’s ride on Komoot Today, I was heading to the Canal di Midi and the town of Beziers. Again, it was a beautiful day – crisp early but warming up quickly. I had breakfast at the Boulangerie around the corner. They have a special for the hotel guests. I have to say that there’s something …
