Scott Anderson commented on a photo in To Ambert

Yes. It’s another spot I’ve always wanted to get back to.

Oh. I see I must have created this map after the fact for some reason, but then deleted it by accident. I’ve done that a few times in the past until I started standardizing names so I’d recognize which were referenced. I’ll rebuild it, and also the one for the following day or two, up through where the derailleur broke.

Well, this was over 30 years ago. We were just navigating with Michelin maps. I’m pretty sure I could recreate it from memory though. I’ll add it in sometime over the next few days.

It's a shame your maps aren't loaded.

Is this Le Puy?

It’s so amazing to think about this now - this tour itself, and all that’s come since. I updated the journal to add a map for our ride up the Ardeche after reading the Classen’s post. I keep struggling to find the route we took on that memorable day so I thought I might as well save it this time.

Just 31 years ago!

The ivy's certainly an attractive embellishment but the building itself is quite graceful. But yes, the ivy's going to play merry hell with the stonework, as noted elsewhere.

It’s the ivy. It’s a shame what it’s doing to the masonry though.

That's an especially attractive chateau, to my eye.

Visible evidence of how hard ivy is on masonry walls.

Yup. It’s pretty remarkable that Rachael didn’t leave me years ago, really.

Had to look it up. It’s been 50 years since I read the Trilogy.

With enough whitewash it could pass for Minas Tirith.

Oh, that’s another thing. Digital cameras! No more carefully hoarding a few dozen rolls of film. And especially, no more waiting until getting back home to see if anything actually came out. That’s what happened to the 2001 tour - the lens cover was stuck partly shut for nearly the entire tour and I didn’t know it until we got home.
