La route Richard Coeur de Lion

The last ride south of the Loire

1200-roadkill — Roadkill is what cars do. The ultimate killing machine

1200-ruins — Discovering the old Chateau de Res. Whatever is left of it.

1200-ruins-2 — THere used to be a waterway under the chateau. A very smart design, there is a lake nearby. It was easy to connect it to the chateau with a small canal.

1200-tires — I’ve always used the Marathon tires. Even though they are not as fast as the sleek Kojaks, the Marathons are super strong and super reliable.

1200-vertical-journet — One of the last sunny evenings at Journet

1200-vieu-pont - Copy — The View Point at Montmorillon

1200-yger-geminini — ‘Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.’

1200-oiling-brompton The Brompton must be oiled for the winter. Until the next year it’s going to be stored folded and greased.

Brompton mods: a Titanium seat post and M-bar

04-2

The main reason to replace the P-bar with an M is that the M allows bar ends. Numb hands are my only gripe with the Brompton.

I had to drill the stubborn bolt on one of the brake levers. Sometimes WD40 is not enough.

Château de Bourg Archambault, 2016

This 15th century château was built on the site of a Roman fortress of which only a fortified gateway remains. Protected by a large moat, the château consists of an enclosure wall flanked by two towers, a small fortified castle entrance, a dwelling and a chapel with stone flags.
