Mortagne-au-Perche to Alencon. 43 km

Voir Verte ride, on the dedicated path, the whole way today - not too shabby. Only 43 km but enough for these bikers. Picnic lunch in a community park this time, but church steeple still in view 🤑.

Good call to stop early in a slightly larger town, as 5 km out we get our first flat tire. Cindy's tire. Back one...of course. Good news is it isn't raining. And we patch it up pronto. (A bit of the Royal 'we' in there but I certainly helped and took good notes for next time 🙃).

Alencon on a Sunday - locked down, shuttered up. Walked for half an hour to find no open restaurants and only one open bar - which we tried with good success 🍻. Did finally happen on to a car show - Ferraris and the like.

Nice town. Government offices get all the old heritage buildings.Read more
