Day 6 completed. We rode 187km from Lyon to Bollene, mainly along the banks of the river in 38 degrees temperatures. It was hot and tiring but with very little climbing it was billed as a transition day to get us ready for Mont Ventoux. We cycle the mythical mountain tomorrow – well actually later today as it’s 12:45am with breakfast at 6:30am.

The reason I’m up a little late is I wanted to give a taster of day 6 in the saddle. If you are considering it for next year do get in touch….
