Our third day of riding was much more enjoyable than the first two. The scenery was more interesting and the route took us around many more turns and up and down lots of gentle hills. We had two inconvenient incidents though.
The RideWithGPS app sent us up a bunch of stairs leading to the Abbey at Saint-Sever. Not convenient on recumbent trikes. The video below starts with a Patti and I bumping the trikes up the steps.
An hour or so after that, the app guided us into a long muddy trail – also not good on trikes. We hope you enjoy the rest of the video, accidentally recorded while we push and pull the trikes through the slime. The upside was that the muddy trail was a shortcut that likely saved us about 10km of riding.
Wow! Today certainly brought a glimpse of reality of handling weather, mud, stairs on a trike journey. Not a glamorous day but certainly one that adds to the adventure. Living vicariously through your lens.

Thank you Michelle. We’ll see you back in summer-y Trawna after June 3. Hot and sunny here. Cheers, John
