Remember how I had a flat a month ago? I finally took some time off from packing to fix the tube so I can bring it as a spare this vacation. For some reason there were two pairs of snakebites. One on the side like a standard pinch flat, the other right next to the valve on the inside. So it looks like I need a bit more pressure in the rear when riding on terrain like this.
Other than that things are ready for our tour, starting this weekend. I do however need to keep an eye on our planned route, with
forest fires being a major issue East of Marseille and
Covid spread an issue in all of the South of France and North-East of Spain. We're currently looking at two routes, with the first one being discarded for another year;
Marseille to Rome and
Marseille to Barcelona.
Fire risk in the area
