Day 69 – Singing in the rain

The ride start tougher than expected, the trails and gravel roads are not in the best condition for a bike. The gravel is very loose, it takes 1h15 to do the first 10km. Only 80km left to do. But the rest of the day goes great, I find rythme, the small rain that is going on all day is not strong enough to be a problem. I put the music on, test some new playlist and just enjoy the road.

I finally arrive at the camping at 19h45. I get started on setting up camp and cooking some food. I make 250g of pasta + can of Heinz beans + vegetables, I eat all of it no problem. I arrived right at a good time because the rain is intensifying, and tonight night will be fun under that tent. Then a really warm shower and now relax before going to bed. I am next to a fire, once again saving me from the cold. There is a dutch couple next to the fire, we talk briefly.

We can see the sleep spot
Very loose gravel – almost unrideable for 7km
After going up, we go down – I did not think there would be so many hills
