Hills, mountains, distant volcanoes, rivers, barrages, forests, beautiful villages, logging, military exercises, wind farms - incredible views - we had it all today. Sunshine, serious southern heat, blistering views from start to finish. Everyone was gobsmacked, expectations were exceeded, morale held up even though the climbs were constant and lengthy. Really impressed by everyone especially Ahmet and Enis who I spent much time with. Photo stops were the order of the day - at every turn there was something worth stopping for but we couldn't of course. Destination today was Argentat on the Dordogne river - beautiful spot after a long 45mph descent. Great hotel (Le Sablier de Temps), great food, arrived in time for a swim, and to watch England v Slovenia (or was it it Slovakia?) in the village bar
