The final rehearsal

Today was my "dress rehearsal" with Gamin: 18 kilometres in the mountains around Roiffieux.

At first, Gamin was very afraid of my panniers. We had to take time to get him used to them. Then we set out. And he followed me, willingly and with firm steps.

Often there were strong gusts of wind. Especially on the mountain. But what a landscape!

The Vosgean spring is only just beginning, but here in the Ardèche there is a frenzy of blossoms and flowers.



I am getting fed up with the training tours, although today's hike was of course very important. Nevertheless I am really looking forward to tomorrow, when it will begin in earnest!

No song is better suited for this day than this one:



Okay, it is not quite May yet, but everything else fits!
