Bassin Saint Christophe
Tankfill at Pertuis
A fierce Mistral bringing a crystal-clear blue sky to the Lubéron. But supplies of petrol are still precarious because of the blockades and protests.
These are not grand gorges like the Ardèche or the Verdon but there’s less traffic plus you get curves that tighten because the geology determines the route more than the surveyor. They’re a special treat (challenge) for the rider. The Nesque road has been resurfaced recently so is good and even.
But a roadside picnic in the sunshine as all the villages all closed (it’s Monday) and the towns are far away.
Back for a colourful sunset in Marseille.
