Riding to the Med: Day 26

Left for Montpellier just after 9 - Sue bike had a puncture so delay whilst we fixed it - couldn’t find a cause in the tyre but set offStopped in Sète for coffee and picked up sandwiches for lunch then carried on After passing through the industrial part of Sète on rather busy roads we picked up a cycle track Watched Kite surfers on a lake near Frontignan Plage, stopped again for our sandwich then set off again Unfortunately Sue had another puncture which we repaired , got going for a short time and puncture again, fixed again but when blowing it up popped again! it was decided that the boys would go on alone to collect the minibus from Montpellier and Sue and I would limp to the nearest village with our luggage and her flat tyre . We made camp in a rather quaint little place but it had a Spar shop, cafe and boulangerie so we spent more than 2 hours there! About 5 30 the boys turned up in the minibus We had to try and squash the bikes in without damaging the seats - I found a supply of cardboard boxes outside the Spar shop which did the job and we were soon away Sue and I had bought a picnic during our wait so we headed north - stopping at the very impressive Millau Bridge for a picnic

Booked into a Campanile for tonight - eta 10 30 pm !
