OHHHHHH MATRON ................No you rude people !!!

STAYING ON THE BLACK STUFF

It was far to nice yesterday so "Sod work" and go for a play , it was around 3pm so i thought a nice run to Domme and back , a nice hour of twisties.

Our lass was happy feeding her new friend with stale bread

I headed of stopping at the St Julien-du-Lampon on the Dordogne for an arty farty pic

These two guys came over for a nosey.....Fox Terriers

Didn't take any pics of the black stuff , just enjoyed the empty D703 and arriving at some big old house

The Chateau de Montfort

This is only about 25km for home and on turning round for taking the pic i noticed "DIRT"

Unfortunatly after about a km it ended

It got better

Donk was enjoying it

Soon after here passed another inviting lane .............it'd be rude not to !!!

Realy easy riding and so many choices !!! left

Or right

I'd left the GPS at home so was just keeping the sun on my back and guessing


After maybe a klick or two i saw this in the woods

Turns out its a cave/pothole !!! you cant see on the pic but it must have been 20+ M deep

Now from here i passed through woods , fields and the odd tiny village and popped out , suprisingly VERY close to home !!!

Proper "Green lanes"

Back into the woods

Tighter sections

More open stuff

Woods again

On to someones drive !!!! all legal though

Then strangly enough i could have been in a differant country 90% of trees here are scrub oak , but here i'm in a pine forest with sand trails !!!

Someone put a BIG BLACK line across my trail !!

Within the next 10kms i'd come out of the woods in a place called Auniac 4 km from home!!!
I love it here ................a good 25kms of trails onmy door step i've never done after 10 years of being here

Great pictures, thanks for sharing, Phil. What brilliant scenery you have there.

 

[Frad]

You are indeed a lucky guy but in this world you make your own luck, so good on you Phil
These pics have put a smile on my face from my hospital bed making me know I need go no further than France to have an amazing holiday, certainly canoeing down one of the many rivers, should have done the Tarn a couple of years back when on the Vara.

Next year, health permitting.

Cheers Phill.
