Typical Tarn view |
I was away early in an effort to get to Millau by lunchtime to get food before all the shops shut. The awesome scenery soon put paid to that idea. Really magnificent.

Chateau Haute Rive (no road to this hamlet) People and goods have to
cross on a winched tryolean traverse |
|
This section is actually one way now |
I was fortunate to find a village sop in Les Vignes, this took the pressure off and I was able to just pedal along taking it all in
|
Downstream from Les Vignes |
|
One of many tunnels on the D907b |
Millau came and went, the British designed viaduct towers over the Tarn valley and in my mind was a milestone that I had reached I felt like i really was making progress across france.

The terrain changed slightly after Millau softening as the valley widened, the village of Le Peyre very picturesque, and a car free zone!

Continuing to follow the river I arrived at St-Rome-de Tarn having ridden 78 kilometres, the site is above the river in what once would have been a vineyard. The loo's etc are the best I have ever seen anywhere.
