Bit of a lazy day but it started well with seeing some diesel at 1.31 but only needing half a tank it seemed an opportunity too good to miss. It was a fre km south of Tuleda on the dual carriageway and the lady assistant insisted on filling it up for us.
We then headed to Daroca. We had it...
Both our bums are hurting plus our quads and calves, but this is all muscle fatigue which is good for me in getting nerve ends retrained. Possibly not to the point of jelly legs but hey ho.
We got to Cascante then noted several people have stopped here whilst traversing Spain. The Aire is in a...
We set off early (0930) and made our way up the valley to complete the second part of the disused railway.
Slow journey right through the centres of towns with humps at 30kph limit.
The Aire at Arnedillo is up a big hill. It is definitely a push your electric bike and need 2 breaks kind of...
We awoke to bright blue skies and solar panel hit 160 watts at one stage today, luckily the biting cold wind doesn't affect our leccy gathering.
The Aire emptied out quite early and we set off with our brand new tyres having worn out the old ones.
It is a 33 KMs ride which follows the river...
Today was just unbelievably wet. Really heavy showers all day and a couple of snowstorms. Getting 100 yards behind a lorry in the same track were our tactics.
Going round the rocade of Bordeaux cost us 45 minutes because of the jam so we made what we thought was an informed judgement on paying...
It has been incessant rain all the way down from pont de l'arche. Haven't gone over 60 mph. It was a good day for travelling only because it was a bad day for everything else. More of the same tomorrow so we took the Chartres Tours Poitier national route.
To stop us getting bored, the guess...
A pretty unimpressive day that saw us get on the ferry and purchase golden Virginia for 121 pounds and 2 litres of Ricard at 13 pounds each.
The ferry was well kitted out and pretty empty and we were first to get off.
No injuries to report yet today and even more impressively no meds and no...

We have heard of this place but never been so decided to give it a go and see what the score is. Hold your breath, we paid. It's only 7.50 for 2...
More Journals from suavecarve
It is that time of year when we go on holiday and I do a journal. I call it a thrournal as I start with a journal and copy it into a thread. Hopefully others will do journals in the upcoming period as well. And the journal map is very helpful for holiday planning.
This holiday will be 28 days...
Intending to travel from around l'Orient down to as far as Ile de Re leaving on the overnight ferry from Newhaven on the night of 27th August.
In my signature you will find a couple of journals from this year, Bavaria and Languedoc, and some previous places I have added retrospectively under...
A collection of noteworthy previous stopovers and/or places we have visited worthy of consideration within France.
Having done a few journals and one "live" one and listened to the feedback that it is more preferential for most to enjoy a thread with interaction rather than page clicking, I am going to try the Thrournal, a thread and journal and better sounding than a Jouread which might make me sound a bit...
These are the places we have been to previously in Germany with information taken from previously posted material by ourselves.
We havent done a lot of Italy and I am unsure of how many photos we took but created for when we return. We had a friend there and left our van at her place while I flew back for a couple of weeks work
I have already posted about these and created a journal, but the journal was created incorrectly and the map part of things didnt work so Jim destroyed them at my request and am slowly but surely adding them up. Apologies if you have seen them before.
Belgium not as boring as one has always...
There is a thread of all the disused railway lines we have cycled on our travels on ebikes.
If all goes to plan, I just put the link in here on the journal and add the location and there will be a map of where we have cycled created and a link to the photos and the spiel I wrote about them at...
Having done a journal "Languedoc 28 days"
It felt inappropriate to put Sully sur la Loire into it.
We have about a week left so have created this one for here and we will be between Paris and Dieppe somewhere for next week.
Photos guaranteed, cycling highly likely and highly likely on a voie...
