One week ago I was biking with Sally<\/a> down the River Lee and the Regents canal with a wonderful welcome at Daphne’s. 647 miles later I’ve been cycling on my own down the Canal de la Marne a la Sa\u00f4ne and Sa\u00f4ne river and am now listening to screaming French kids at the Pizz Up restaurant.<\/p>\n

Last night I stayed in the faded excellence of the La Post hotel in Langres with the receptionist who refused to budge on the \u20ac75 rack rate. Tonight it was a machine that charged me \u20ac32 for a key to my room at a F1 hotel in Dole with no power points in the room and vending machines in the corridor.<\/p>\n

Today was lovely and flat apart from where the Balesmes tunnel was blocked to cyclists and I had to carry my bike up the steps and cycle down overgrown paths plus up a great hill. Tomorrow it’s The Jura.<\/p>\n

And now to devour my Pom Pizz Up Plus at that centre of culinary excellence in Dole. Pizz Up restaurant!<\/p>\n
