L2P day three




We got down to the ferry terminal just before 8 to find there would be a 2 hour delay to sailing time so we found a Sainsbury Cafe for breakfast and lunch (wine) for the crossing. Eventually left port at 12 so 3 hours behind schedule. Very foggy crossing and with losing hour left Dieppe at 5. The route to Avenue Verte on easy roads then 25 miles of fabulous cycle road before turning off to overnight stay about 40 miles total in 3 hours. Fantastic place to stay with dinner pre-arranged and 3 bottles (wine) for 11 euro. Four proper beds and a good nights sleep in a little oasis. Biggest day for miles tommorrow but passed 130 miles now. One puncture today and a sqeaky bottom bracket. Weather glorious.
