Bas en Basset-Saint Genis Laval

 Well today guys i've gone away a bit later... 9.30 am.... only 100ks to do and not much climbing...  

Scenerie's not bad at all over all when back on the Gorges of the Loire but once in St. Etienne it's gone  it took me two hours befor i came out of this " city close to the next city "

Bad and dangerous drivers ... bad roads... ..to much stress... don't go there really

Well... i'm on my way back

 Colomiers- Villefranche de Rouergue


Well... not much to say for today

Early in the morning  i had an half flatt tyre.... don't no why 

It lasts for the day once full of air  but gets flat in the night so i'll have to change the inner tube one of those holly days ...but not today.

The beggin of this journey... easy as it goes along the canal then from km. 90 or so lots of ups and down but thats the game...not to hard yet 

But ... Houston we've got a problem ... the days are a lot shorter ... and that's a part of the game to
