The heat is on...

Day 8 of the adventure and riding through the very southern part of La Belle France. First stop was Roquefort, where the cheese is made from Ewes’ milk. EU law stipulates that cheese can only be labelled Roquefort if it is aged in the local Combalou caves. That stinks...

Lunch was served in St. Sever, or should I say Lilliput? 

Tonight’s destination is Orthez, where in 1814 the Duke of Wellington defeated Marshal Soult during the Napoleonic wars. 

Tomorrow the fun really begins when the team head over the Pyrenees (sore knees too, I imagine).
