Our second stop in France was in the Luberon, which is just east of Avignon. This place is flooded with cyclist. The opportunities for a good ride are countless. There are lot's and lots of hills to climb. At the horizon you have a good view of Mont Ventoux, one of the 'hors categorie' mountains in the tour.
The bikes for hire were far better than at the former place. No real lightweight bike yet but I managed to get uphill. Good practice for a flatlander. Not Mont Ventoux, just a small one.
Small, but enough to get a good kick out of it. I'll be back. Next time with my own bike, let's see how high that will take me.
