Cheerful, lively stage on the right and left of the Loire. A discovery for me, above all, was the beautiful town of Beaugency with a lively market and a beautiful church from the 11th century.

All in all, a nice, varied tour today, even if the first 20KM went on a four-lane 🛣 without a separate 🚲 path. The 🚲 is running again - didn't need a spare part - the engine was probably overloaded yesterday - everything was fine again this morning 👍.
