26th June – Tuesday…
…What a night – the temperature dropped from 44 degrees at 4pm to 4 degrees at 3am this morning… I think the mountain stream running through the camp did that….
I woke up at 3 and put on more clothes and then again at 5am…. Bugger 6am came and the early morning dash to the ablutions was done in a record speed…..
Packed up and on the road by 8am - we had meet with an English man during the evening and it turned out that he knew Gerry Gooch and was a member of the CSMA etc etc…. so we sat with him last night and had a couple of beers…..
The riding today was excellent – lots of twisty's and wigglies…. Over the mountains and out of Andorra….passed loads of big Camper vans and eager French shoppers getting the booze and fags in….. into France and a lot more bendy country roads…. And so so bloody hot…………
Finally rode over the Millau viaduct and stopped at the visitor expo briefly…. Then down to the camp site pitched the tents and walked into town for a bit of shopping and a visit to the ATM for some Euros….. (yes Debs I will give you the cash when I get home)…. David and I stopped off for a couple of beers – and returned to the camp site to cook once the sun has gon down a bit….
Rui has decided not to eat this evening – but has gone off on his bike to take more pictures of the viaduct….. buy a postcard I said ….. so Dave and I are about to tuck into some pasta and ????? whatever…. Night night
