Day 9: Belleville-sur-Loire to Sully-sur-Loire

July13

The heat made the ride feel a lot harder than normal so today was tough… I did not get started until 1.30pm today (went to see a castle!). The ride was also around 8 miles longer than I thought. The ride had some beautiful scenery though. This is my last day heading north, tomorrow I turn around and head back toward Dijon. I like the eurovelo 6 and I am looking forward to coming back and doing the full thing one day.

I had an absolutely amazing dinner, I love snails so much! I think the lady was impressed with how much I ate :).

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 :).
