Monday 28th April - Hourtin Port to Saint Laurent Medoc - Roue the Day!

Woke to more pissing in the pins and headed off in search of a bike repair shop to deal with Georges' roue - it took three outlets and c.20km to find one capable and willing but, thank you Mondo Velo. The lad in the workshop seemed to pull it back into near perfect alignment for all of 17E.

The route to fixing the wheel sent us almost against our planned route to link with the Garonne and so, we revised things a little and chartered a more direct course via Bordeaux. This should mean the opportunity for a day in the World Heritage heart of the city and perhaps some washing etc.
