It rained quite hard during the night, but my trusted new REI tent kept me and the gear dry. The rain stopped at sunrise, so we were able to pack up and eat breakfast without getting wet. I headed off with my Canadian partners, Terry and Don, and the skies opened up. For the next two hours we rode in showers and driving rain. Yuck! Mid-morning we joined up with three other riders and stopped for coffee. One of our riders spoke fluent French and told one of the gentlemen in the café about our trip. This older French man complemented us and paid for all the drinks. And who says the French are all rude?
Our campground in Troyles was exceptionally clean with unlimited hot water showers. I spent several hours washing and drying my cloths at the campground laundrymat, but used the time to visit and trade stories.
