Road biking 2:30:00 [1] 33.0 km (4:33 / km) +350m 4:19 / km
We had found a bike hire place at Nieuil and reserved bikes for this morning - all very relaxed and friendly. Pleasant easy paced loop round the gentle undulations north of Nieuil up to St Laurent de Ceris (top coffee here), west to Beaulieu sur Sonnette then back via St Claud - good mix of terrain and seemingly a buzzard in every field!
And with the bike hire place being a restaurant, it would have been rude not to stay for lunch, what with them being so friendly and all. So on arrival back we sat down to a very tasty set menu four course meal - inclusive of wine it was 12 euros, and set me up nicely for a snooze on the sun lounger in the garden in the afternoon......which in turn set me up very nicely for the four course meal in the evening......
