A couple of tours around Lyon's Parc de la Tête d'Or but then it was getting busy so decided to test the new cycle path which has been redeveloped along the Rhone before crossing the Pont de Lattre de

Back to rollerskiing. Skating for a change after a lot of classic before the non-season.

Testing my new ghost 14 shoes.

Return to running after a two week layoff. Testing my old Decathlon KALENJI RUN 100 8 euro shoes (ok they are 12 euros today).

Very slow going except on north facing pistes with a bit of slope. Some not unreasonable powder on the Kamakaze slopes.

The village of Valmeinier dates from the 12th century with the main activity being mostly farming.

21:39 for the tour of the park (3.82km) which is about a minute up on my previous best of 22m31s due to less aches and pains in the ankles.

A 5K tour just to get some fresh air. I just did the half tour as I had a train to catch.

Just to confirm that it is possible to ride up to St Cyr during the lunch break. My long cut to St Cyr (idea was to find a flatter road) was not a good idea.

Trying to find an easier climbing route, this time via St Cyr but there appears to be a better option taking the Collonges road to the first r'about.
