Gorgeous day for a first longish trip since the accident.

Plummeted to 19C here today, so thought we'd better get on the bikes to make the most of it. I hadn't ridden much since the accident so wanted to try a full day out on the bike.

The village of Tourrettes sur Loup

On the way up to Greolieres, one of the closest ski resorts to the coast, but no snow this year.

I'd forgotten how great the roads were around here. This is the D2 from greolieres to Le Broc. Great little loops round here with no traffic

Further up the D2 towards Thorenc, this section has been used in loads of films, including Pierce Brosnan as James Bond driving the Aston whilst some woman in a red Ferrari races him down the road. Very scenic.

Of course I did, I *AM* actually French now ye know,.....sacre bleu. We were sitting on the beach today having a picnic, but I had to move into the shade, so still got some Scottish in there. hahahaha
 
Brilliant photos and lovely weather for this time of the year. The world is being blown sideways at about 40mph here at the moment. :)
