Day 17 – Rieux to Blain(click to open route in new window)
Friday May 20, 2011, 45 km (28 miles) – Total so far: 608 km (378 miles)
Today seemed a difficult ride despite there being no hills. The heavy gravel path made it hard going and although we only did 45km – it was all gravel.
We saw a creepy frog.
We were knackered at the end of the day we were glad to find a campground at Blain, strong cowshit smell and all!
We camped next the the chateux.
We were so tired and our muscles so sore – we decided to stay here for two days.
