Finally, finally, the lows have moved on and high pressure zones dominate the area. Yee-bloody-haa! Today has mostly (OK, mainly!) been clear blue skies, sun and warmth - God how I have missed the sun. I celebrated (?!) by taking the roadie for a quick spin. My legs quickly made it known that they did not appreciate being back on the bike after a break of over 5 weeks - it was hard work. I only did 48kms - Pissou/Massat/Col de Saraillé/Oust/back up the D618 to Massat/Pissou, but it was more tiring than it should have been. Still, it got the legs working again, I was out in the sun and that is all that matters. Next time it will be easier.
Plans for the coming week are to bag a 3000m peak or two - Andy is off to Iran on 12 July and some ascent/aerobic activity will stand him in good stead for the trip. Looking forward to exploring some of the higher hills up the Soulcem Valley which border Andorra - plenty to go at, that's for sure!
