My 100th hour…

So far, I have gone 1672 km and been on the bike for 105:55 hours.

I am in Digne today, waiting for the tour to come tomorrow, and this town is READY!

most of the shops have a display, or at least a flyer up.
Did you know that every stop on the tour has a cheese associated with it?

The most I have stayed in one town is 2 nights, and I usually get ancy when I don’t ride, but I am making an exception to see the tour and staying in Digne for 3 nights.
Tomorrow, I think I will try to bike up to the Col de L’Orme, which is 734 m and about 9 km from the finish. I think it would be better to see the racers climb than be in the city for the end, struggling through the crowd to see the racers come through.
