After the descent from Sancerre over a long old bridge, then very flat, but unfortunately still (west) windy. That was tiring, also for the bottom. So today I made a decision: I'm going to treat myself to a Brooks. Also today: saw the first large castle up close - Château de Sully.

Beautiful route, first over land and through a small Réserve Naturelle, then along the Canal du Nivernais and the Canal Latéral à la Loire. The west wind is annoying, but should ease from the day after tomorrow. There are already a few bicycle tourists on the way, from FR DE CH etc. and also Canada.

From the Jura down to the Burgundy plain, and there it became "nice and flat" and really warm. In the evening, we made up for the lack of fluids - recuperation is important :)

To get to the Loire, you first have to leave Switzerland - but in between is the Jura. I had completely forgotten how much fun it is to ride a fully loaded touring bike over the hills. And then the wind came, from the front of course. And then the rain. And then the knee, hopefully it's just old age

Wonderful last stage, with sun, wind and rain, a few smaller castles and the caves near Saumur. It was beautiful!
