Bike Trip France - May '16

The French were revolting and trying to keep all their fuel to themselves, but we carried on like troopers and biked down to the Auvergne region and across the Massif Central before heading north again. 

The weather was changeable, the number of riders (at 10) was challenging, but some great roads, great food and great wine made sure we had a great time!

La Bourboule

The oddest place in town was the Casino, the only place open for lunch. A sumptuous buffet of day old meats and salads and many beers helped Lionel, Harj and Mark get through the day!
