Barbezieux

Well that was a nightmare trying to get the last post away. Anyway we did 73 kms of rolling country side with the rain threatening in the morning. Stayed last night in a self serve Ibis at Angouleme. Great value at 45€
The best part of Angouleme was the road out of it


Following the river Charente was excellent until Chateneauf and we had to go on a road again








St Simeux was gorgeous. 2 mills that date back to the Middle Ages


Massive vineyards now that supply the distilliaries of Cognac. There's always something to discuss . I don't think I could do it on my lonesome like some do.


5kms out of Barbezieux we get on to an old railway line. Ahh so good. Looking forward to a Voie verte tomorrow. A 'green' way
