September 12, 2022,Rhone und Provence - Tag 2 - Von Brens nach Chavanoz

Quite a few meters in altitude for a so-called river bike path.
Today it went almost in all directions.
In the afternoon partly with a breeze headwind. That brought at least a little cooling from the front. Because it was summer.
Conclusion: 96 degrees in the shade - and only about half in the sun. But in Celsius.

August 23, 2023,Rhône Tag 3, mit Fettstoffwechseltraining nach Lyon

In addition to today's 41 degrees max, we had the problem that we couldn't buy any food until km 112!!!
Either there were no shops or they were closed between 12pm and 4pm.
So the emergency ration of 2 rolls and 1 🍎 had to be enough.
A pharmacy with water saved us from dehydration.
