Scrubbers !! haha. Got the new rubber on the bike, so decided to take advantage of the clement weather.
Part 1 of the ride was up to the Route Napoleon, which is less than half an hour from home, so why not?
Stopped for a coffee in Logis des Pins
Then up the RN to Castellane, immediately turning left on entering the town, to the D102 which heads to Le Bourget.
Nice wee road which winds along the river.
Nice day for it, but cold out of the sun, which luckily wasn't too often
It helped there was near zero traffic on these roads, tranquil
Just as well it was quiet with this big galoot taking up the whole road on his bike
Once it cooled, we decided to make a detour and hit the coast to warm up
Always nice to roll along the Esterel, especially from West to East with the sun at your back
Even doon here, it wasn't too busy from a traffic point of view.
Though here's a picture with a car in it just to prove it's not photoshopping haha
Do not go STRAIGHT ahead.
Nice quiet pad on the Med.
Back home over the hill via Tanneron, where all the mimosa trees are in full flower, so there's far, far too many cars with dopey tourists here.
That's all folks.....
