Saint Laurent Louan to Orléans

With only about 40km to go today to Orleans and our Airbnb booked we had a relaxed start this morning. We watched a replay of Orica Scott's Luca Mezgec winning stage 2 of the Tour of Slovenia over brekky in our room, then rode past the Saint-Laurent Nuclear Power Plant. We navigated on roads for about 11km, crossing the Loire at Beaugency to rejoin the official bike route. We had a fairly solid cross/headwind for most of the day. Settled in to our very pleasant Airbnb for two nights. Our self contained studio is off a garden courtyard hidden behind the street front buildings, and an easy walk to the centre of town.Read more
