Castellane & The Gorges Du Verdon 2010

Me and Mike are in Grenoble. Weather has been great so far 29degrees. We are going to ride the last leg down to Castellane tomorrow.

I am also in Grenoble on a balmy evening with Sarah and another 4 folks. Glorious weather at the moment, and looking forward to the Route Napoleon tomorrow.

Cheers,

Matt

Hi Rob,

Thanks for popping along for a beer and a chat. It was great to meet you, and we did the ride you suggested on Friday. One of the best of the entire trip, including the coffee stop at Valberg. Photos to follow when we get home.

Currently in Beaune after a night in Annecy and another great ride today. One more night in France then home Tuesday.

There were around 55 of us at Castellane in the end, a fantastic turn out.

Cheers,

Matt
 
Glad you enjoyed it. :thumb Hope the weather holds for the rest of the journey home.

Safe riding..../Rob
 
A great time was had in Castellane, Thanks to Matt (Monty) & Sarah for organizing, Mike Davies, Matt Butcher, & Mark Weavers for their help with the ride out, which reached new heights in ride outs, :eek:. to save a load of typing there now follows a party pictorial broadcast…….
