Riding time: 4hrs 51 min

Highlights: Gorgeous ride across woods, swiss and french villages, mix of dirt and paved roads, single tracks and killing short climbs, sun with us all the way !!

All went well - including nice lunch in Chancy - until 3DC's left pedal seized/blocked and despite many attempts to fix it, the unfortunate rider had to forfeit end of the ride and call Home + jump in jacuzzi. ; ) ...while fellow riders where finishing the ride...

Suggestions for points to Mr Referee:

+ 1 All for the ride

+ 0.5 Husky for his everlasting good humor despite events

+ 0.5 3DC for Coronas upon arrival - vaporized in no time in thirsty mouths !

+ 0.5 Papy for gushing blood on middle finger....whose fault ? 3DC...bike handling skills..(?!)

+ 0.5 3DC + Husky - drinking Pastis 51 for lunch...well 3DC had a Rivella later, why ? beers were so good !

+ 0.5 Papy for i-phone pictures coverage and f#*^%$& blog report...
