Road Ride 2:46:00 [3] 70.0 km (2:22 / km) +1535m 2:08 / km
I would call this an "idyllic" ride as I had the roads to myself, the scenery was stunning, and the pavement was smooth. I did a tour of the Gorges de l'Ardeche from our little 'glamping' set up just south of Vallon Pont d'Arc. The fact that I had the roads to myself is quite remarkable given that everyone and their dog seems to be vacationing in the Ardeche region at the moment. Clearly, they're not early risers! The white cliffs of the Gorge are pretty cool to see and the drops from the edge are very severe. No wonder lots of the French come to have a look. There are lots of quiet and perfectly paved roads around so I'll have to do some more exploring.
