Riding to the Grand Canyon of the Verdon

Riding to the Grand Canyon of the Verdon

At last some spring-like weather. That boring blue sky again and a bit of warmth... but it’s so welcome after what seems like interminable winter gloom. Some of my favourite roads these on the way to the Grand Canyon of the Verdon. The south rim road was closed at Col d’Illoire (967 m.) lookout but no matter, it was time to stop for a picnic lunch in the pine tress overlooking the big rocks.
