A very few stats today
Distance travelled 94 miles
Total dist 752 miles
The best day yet! Left Montelimare just as the sun was rising and managed 94 miles in 7 hours. Only 10 miles short of original schedule. Lovely ride through the Cote du Rhone villages - grape harvest had just started and there was a strong smell of grape juice in the air as we passed each coop. Then along the Durance valley to finish in sight of the mountains which we have to cross tomorrow. No easy way! Head down and pedal.
Oli came off his bike today. Nothing serious but nasty road rash on his knee and elbow. Picked up supplies in a pharmacy which like the boulangerie there is one in every French village.

well done guys!!! You must be almost there now!
When will we read about 'breaking the ton', breaking gears very boring. Wine desriptions keeping me going - Oz Clark eat your heart out. Oli needs to get elbow pads from the next frendly bike shop owner.
Keep it up.
