Day 7 - 854km Hostens, France. I've hit the jack pot again, managed to get in to some closed camp site and all the showers etc are working! Had a flying start to the day with a bowl of kellogs corn flakes courtesy of my generous hosts Linda and Christopher who were more than happy to take a smelly lycra clad stranger in the night. Long day, beautiful vineyards and forests, although the head wind - which I'm starting to take very personally - kept speeds down.
