May 21, 2024,Le tour du Lac d'Esparron

The first day in Haute-Provence, today we went on a nice ride on the racing bike. Starting from Esparron, this tour went around the Lac d'Esparron. The landscape was very varied, with oak forests, poppy and lavender fields. Beautiful first day.

As always, the road and the landscapes are sublime but the motorists in Provence are infected, even worse than elsewhere. Damage
