So, that's it! A fantastic cycling trip to southern France is over. I'm very happy and satisfied to have been back on my bike for almost three weeks after years. Touring cycling is simply fantastic. Sophie's Mille-du-Sud is extraordinary and unique! You can also ride this route year-round as a "Brevet

Today the weather forecast was right. I cycled into a black wall at 1:00 a.m....after two hours of torrential cycling, there was no need to think twice about the next campsite. I took a hot shower and dried off, waited in the warm shower cabin until 4:30 a.m., and then set up my tent without any rain

After MdS, I find the Via Rhôna horrible—boring. Even the pleasant afternoon tailwind doesn't help. It'll soon be over...

Today's destination is the very nice and affordable La Durance campsite in Cavaillon. This time, not through the Luberon, but south along the EV8 road on a flat, old railway embankment. The heat is getting warmer; a pharmacy's temperature reads 34°C – very pleasant for me.

The loop is complete – I've arrived back at Cotignac MdS Base Camp safe and sound. Sophie has put together another fantastic 1000m climb. Challenging, with many small and large cols on mostly deserted back roads.
I'm happy and satisfied to have dared to attempt and finish an MdS again after an 11-year

There's a new tour highlight: Col de la Sinne! Absolutely fantastic, only five cars in five hours – post office, garbage collectors, tradesmen, and locals. The last three peaks on the Mercantour circuit were the most beautiful cols for me. The scenery is stunning, and the traffic is fantastic!
I'll plan

Mussten die Runde heute bisserl abkürzen, da unangesagter Regen uns überraschte. Trotzdem, bei +9 Grad ertragbar.

Mussten mal dem zähen Rhein- und Pubergnebel entfliehen.
