Le Puy – Ambert

Day 6:

Le Puy - Ambert

Around 90 kms

 

After a day of rest we planned a big trip. But first we needed to leave Le Puy and this was more difficult than it seemed to be. Our map wasn’t very precise, so we lost our way on the first intersection. Fortunately some other Dutch people also left Le Puy this morning, also by bike and they knew the right road. They were cycling the same route, but the other way around. Two days before they had entered Le Puy on the road we were looking for.

 

We left Le Puy after all and cycled in a beautiful landscape again, between fields with very much hay on them. Unfortunately, the weather became bad and the chain of my bike broke. We were on a windy road that moment and there was no other choice than to put another chain on my bike. After this our hands were all black with the grease.

 

About one o’clock we stopped and took a break. It was near a small road, near some hay bags. During this break we got the plan to roll some of these bags on the road. But just when we were talking about this, a farmer drove by in his tractor. So we voted down this plan, because we wanted to arrive in the Netherlands in one piece, not with a pitchfork in our backs.
