Vaut mieux pas les confondre.

Très bon souper ce soir après une journée magnifique de randonnée aux sommets surveillant Calvi.

Better to not confuse the two.
Excellent dinner after a great hiking day on the surrounding summits.

If I'm honest, I've been skeptical of the Olympics' value in our modern world. High costs, politics, displacement of marginalised folks and more.

But as a father I'm now seeing another side. My son has been inspired and motivated by watching the events. If it encourages and fosters a healthy life through sports and being active, that's a win. At least for our family.

Today's 6 km one-way ride to day camp was inspired by yesterday's Pidcock-Koretzky Olympic medal mtb duel. He wanted to relieve the race including the controversial pass on the last lap. Of course he was the winner Pidcock so as Koretzky I even had to unclip my foot and nearly lose control. 😄

Oh yeah - and the bears are happily eating berries here in town. It's important to not ride like ninjas - make noise and be heard! That way you'll never need your bearspray.

Sad news here in France. 😥

The last several days have been extremely rainy here in the Savoie. On Thursday night I awoke to a violent thunderstorm; the winds rocked our little Eurocamper and dropped buckets of rain. Turns out in the higher mountains it was even worse....

Our guests cycled to the idyllic hamlet of La Bérarde on a beautiful day 12 days ago. This hamlet was just destroyed in the storm.

In the photo I encircled:

1. The resto where we had lunch (yellow)
2. The chapel dedicated to alpinism in the centre of the village (red).

The second pic is of the chapel on 10 June.

Thankfully it sounds like everyone was evacuated in time.

Yeah, l'Alpe d'Huez is a classic must do for every serious cyclist. But if you come to the Oisans region and ride only thar, you've missed some other spectacular outings!

Our guests sampled a few of them (including Alpe d'Huez) the last few days. Tomorrow onto the Vercors for a few days.

Excited for our new . The choice of the pros for their superior quality. They look great - and even better on a bike!
