Day 270                                                      15th April<\/p>\n

46miles (Selongey to Val De Meuse)  Average speed  9.9 mph Top speed  37 mph<\/p>\n

When I turned on the radio last night the first song I heard was “I can hear clearly now the rain has gone” today I see the irony in this!!. I was up at 7 and enjoyed bacon and eggs with 3 teas at my picnic table. Then I headed up a small hill to turn left onto the D974, which is a straight road to Langres but after 40 minutes there was a diversion sign as the road was closed, so I went east instead of being diverted onto the motorway.<\/p>\n

This meant I got to see lots of lovely quiet quaint villages but it also meant I had to climb up many hills. At least I had a great time on the way down sometimes reaching 37mph but it was hard work on the way up as I was trying to take my momentum to get back up the other side.<\/p>\n

I eventually found Chateau Camping but not before the rain started and it made it tough getting to the supermarket to buy dinner.<\/p>\n

Fortunately it stopped for long enough for me to cook pasta but started again as I was halfway through eating it so I had to rally round to get everything under cover. At least I got a great hot shower and hid my bike out of the rain.<\/p>\n
