Day 5
Everything was right this morning, the sun was out as was my jacket liner, the luggage left in the room. The roads were fast and perfect, not a hint of top dressing and the road surfaces were smooth and grippy. In short, it made you grateful to be alive. Well unless you happen to be a bike tyre, because then you are in for some serious torture!
Millau is always a special place to ride, the combination of bends and views cannot be beaten, or of our can i would like to be told
The day was let down slightly when we were turned away from the afternoon drink/lunch/comfort stop and sent up the road to a bar where the wc's were out of order (no helpful sign.) 5 minutes wait at a locked for before some helpful workmen let me know. While we were topping up out full bladders the helpful workmen started opening up the manors under our table. We left and found a laybye after that.
I also failed to notice anyone pinning the ' Please Kill Me' sign on my leathers as i encountered several SMIDSY moments on the gorge run back to the hotel.
Early home tonight, maybe we should order pizzas now. Seriously though, eating in at the famous Hotel du Bowling tonight.
Finally some stats, since leaving home we have done over 1500 miles averaging out at over 51mpg and at an average speed of 36 mph (eek).
