Day 87 – Felletin to Guerret

Friday July 29, 2011, 52 km (32 miles) – Total so far: 3,117 km (1,937 miles)

It was a nice downhill run out of Felletin. After 8kms of downhill we came across an awesome campground that would have been nice to have camped at. Pity the stupid girl in the tourist office didn’t tell us about it – would have saved us 65 euros!

We stopped at the Ambusson carrefour for lunch supplies.

We cycled through this town that was playing pink floyd music as we rode through. very cool.

It was more hilly riding but we managed to stay off the main roads for most of the day.

We decided to try and find the campground in Gueret. The GPS took us via some funny routes, down a dirt track and up some steep hills.

We finally found the campground beside a lake. It was 12.40 euros, which wasnt bad considering it is in a major town. The facilities were poor though, with squat toilets.

We found ourselves a quiet little spot, sat down and started cooking dinner when a french caravan turned up and camped right beside us. FFS – there were plenty of spaces but they chose to camp right in front of where were were cooking. No idea of personal space!
