2017-09-25 :

The trick with this route to Limoux is to keep South of the mountainous area of the Cevennes and Monts de l'Espinouse so we don't have to climb up and down steep ravines with paniers .. but to keep far enough North to stay away from the business of the bigger cities like Montpellier and Beziers.

Today on our ride to Saint Chinian we could see the mountains to our right with clouds and rain and to the south with sun! We almost threaded the needle ... until we were within 10km of Saint Chinian .. then it rained! .. but not too hard and it was not too bad as we were on quiet roads into town.

The terrain today opened up quite abit and the roads were mostly smooth and quiet with just a few cyclists. Not as pretty as the hilly Gorge de l'Herault of the day before!

Our hotel tonight is a Logis de France and it has a restaurant .. a set meal .. and it was Beef Bourguigon .. and it was really good!

As promised for Mom, a few picks of HB!

Cheers
Harold and Marion
