Had to move in the night in the end creatures were rustling in my bags! New place had grass! No fee,.. and in the morning picked blackberries again.
Morning View was a Motorway!
9 am set off towards 'Tours' again.
The traditional 'double tap to the head' will never have the same meaning for me,
when on a hot morning ride,
with no water since the day before, this 'double tap' went straight 'on' my head!
DISASTER!!!!!!!
GPS falls off the cradle on to the road and is obliterated by two or three completely myopic drivers.
(Yes my fault, it did come off previously on a particularly daring pitch-black down hill, last night, but was charging so the wire saved it. Not this time....
I can't find all the bits including the French maps SD card.
Ice cream time?
Breath...
And..
Onwards...(I can't let it get me down as I have so far to go still. I'm lucky if 1/3 through at this point.
D938
All my pay it forwards came back today as guy on bike I asked for directions literally escorted me. I would have been in a real state as it was a large busy city and with crazy streets. (he then asked me for a coffee so I strongly suspect he was 'helpful with motive!' - anyway nice chap...)
D943
A good few miles approaching,then lost in and about 'Tour' then out before 'Loaches' at least 10 miles.
By not loads, maybe 7kms
Indre-et-Loire - Centre Region
Skinny Street musicians(mostly annoying baroque!)
First mosquito bite!
Headache! And a coolest evening so far.
D915 stopped dark
Learned lesson about sleeping near a forest..and brought all food inside with me.
I may wake with chocolate moose on me. Old story. But very tired sorry...(hit me today emotionally).
So hope to sleep thru! Dam crickets over my head even the clap trick doesn't work
(that used to stop dad snoring in the tent!).
Full moon! Super bright.
New platitude..

That's like trying to find an SD card from a smashed GPS
in an overgrown French roadside!
