Day 8: Fourchambault to Belleville-sur-Loire

July12

A bit of a longer ride today after a simple breakfast at the B&B. Eurovelo 6 is a great ride so far with 95% of it being dedicated bike path and the other 5% small country roads. It seems a little harder in a few spots to find hotels, but otherwise pretty easy, especially if I can divert 1 to 3 miles off the trail either direction. My plan is to head north one more day, and then turn back around and start heading back to Dijon. In the morning I am going to see Guedelon which I am very excited about!

This is bwb’s personal blog, so he can share his thoughts with the world, however scary or silly they might be. Plus family and friends can track what I am up to, and where I am in the world.

I am pretty simple. I love Mangos. I love the ocean (although mostly at sunset, as I’m a ginger). I love to travel, eat exotic food, do long bike rides, read, and use my imagination. At some point, I decided it was better to be a pirate captain than an admiral. I am a globalist and see the entire world as my responsibility and playground. And I am married to an amazing woman who makes life even more fun :)! And we are now the proud parents of Calico Jack :).
