2017-10-04 :

After a few wet days in Limoux smelling the roses and resting up, we hit the road at 9:10am and said good bye to Limoux with full stomachs from last night's cassoulet! (Leg of duck in bean/sausage stew ..mmm!)

We quickly got on the quiet D102 taking us to Fanjeaux then West to Mazeres. We decided on a more northerly route to remove some hills;). The D102 was a great choice as it was mostly quiet and once we left the foggy Fanjeaux (at 410m) we had sun sun sun with the Pyrenees to our left and sunflower fields to our right!

Mazeres has a few interesting buildings in the centre ville and our hotel is very nice.

Tomorrow we head mostly West to Rieumes where we are staying for 4 days. Looks like a nice place to do day rides from and we are an easy day ride from Toulouse!

61km 580m .. Easy 5% grades

Cheers!
Harold and Marion
