Blog 207 Montmorillon to Meung sur Loire

17th May


I love old fashioned France, the bits that peel off walls, crumble on the ground underneath rain stained posters advertising the customary 'fete’. It’s a land of little events, toujours un fête. I drink a cafe au lait in Le Blanc, the Cafe du Centre across the way from the more exotic Bar Le Theatre except I’m in the sun. I have a small secret smile. I am nearly finished with this ride and I won’t miss one single moment.


The Paddock Cafe, Chattillon sur Indre - Nick + Guy the Owner


I was mooching around small towns in the Indre valley south of the River Loire and found this little cafe. Perfect for bikers (motorcyclists) park outside, enjoy the biker conviviality inside, great inexpensive food. Guy will find somewhere for you to pitch your tent!



I’m glad it’s nearly done, except I have to stay alive until Amsterdam or it will have become a fruitless task. It’s quiet here, the river nearby is slow, tumbling over the weir but on the square the shops are not yet open. Stubbornly through the sound of cars pigeons soften the air with their love sounds, cooing but they they too are quiet.

A very charming article with a relaxed and nostalgic tone. The details about the cafés, sunshine, and small-town scenery make the ride feel memorable, and it gives readers a nice sense of the place.

This was a pleasant travel-style post to read. I like how it captures the feeling of old France, from the small cafés to the quiet streets and local atmosphere. The writing makes the journey feel personal and easy to imagine.

In Quordle, initial assumptions typically appear beneficial. Letters illuminate, patterns materialise, and often one board begins to form.

It can be discouraging when you're almost through a difficult level but die right before the conclusion. geometry dash lite

If you like physics-based driving games, Drive Mad is worth checking out. The unpredictable vehicle movement keeps the gameplay fresh from start to finish.
