Neil: This is our second very long trip now . The first few days are agony particularly if there are hills . The legs scream at you to stop or go slower . Gradually though it gets less . So day three feels a lot better . This part of Brittany is just rolling hills and small market towns. Not many pictures. Countryside pretty but not spectacular. In terms of cycling , pretty ideal , no wind and grey sky. Always rain about but none falling on us . Maybe St James taking a hand !

      Over many years cycling I have poured over maps trying to decide which way to go . Mapping software is so sophisticated now that you can specify what sort of route you wish . We took the road bike option today . Lots of traffic to start with but eventually fairly traffic free . Early to bed early to ride . Works well
