On the way from Les Arcs to Comps sur Artuby we cracked the 1000km mark!!!
We got and and hit the road. We had a hard day ahead of us. The ride is 54.4kms we start the day at sea level and end at 850m above sea level.
Our furst stop was st Ampus - we had a coffee and some food to keep us going. Ampus is very much like the small hilltop towns in Tuscany. From Ampus our next stop was Chateau Double for lunch - this town was perches on the edge of a cliff. The view down the gorge was breathtaking. We called Stew to widh him a Happy Birthday - not such a nice thing to do as it was only 3 am in Canada. Sorry Stew!!
After lunch we climed again. This was long and quite hard in sections. The weather, as nice as it is, is 35 degrees celcius and makes hill climbs twice as hard as normal.
We finally arrived in Comp sur Artuby and found our campground - which just so happened to be perched on a hill (always...). We set-up camp and headed into town to grab some food for dinner.
