Had a nice lunch at Volvic where Volvic water comes from Clermont Ferrand in the Massif Central. Great views of lush green extinct volcanoes.
The alps finally came into sight near Lyon with lots of snowcapped peaks in the distance. Some nice bridges and sweeping motorways with some very long tunnels. Bike engines sounded terrific hitting the redline in the tunnel:) After a slight detour to find the Ibis "budget" hotel got checked in and bikes in underground car pk. Only 70km to Grenoble from here so really our basecamp into the alps foothills tomorrow. Looking forward to some grub after another great day on the bikes together.Læs mere
