The Bol should be a bit special this year, celebrating 100 years since the very first. The bikes all loaded and whatever I've forgotten will have to stay forgotten. I'm on the 02:20 Eurotunnel in the morning, so will be leaving home just before midnight. Tomorrows weather is crap all day, when I checked earlier, so the waterproofs will be getting a good work out, although I know they'll be fine.
The trip meters have been reset to zero, as need to keep an eye on progress, as the first 300 miles will be very boring, and more a matter of just burning through two tanks of petrol, and is quite mind numbing. The prize being the road south of Vichy, and on to Le Puy en Velay and my overnight campsite. The weekends weather at the track looks good and hope it stays that way, as the mistrale in 2019 certainly spoilt the weekend.
