Cycling from Bétête, France to Aubusson, France
Left
Bétête ju
st at dawn and skipped breakfast there. After no real
dinner the night before, was real anxious to get to a real town for some breakfast. It was
real early, about 5AM when I got on the road and a thick mist was all along the road.
Started cycling the D3 south through Châtelus-Malvaleix and Alain then crossed the
Creuse on an old Roman bridge at St. Laurent. A really nice ride down the
C1 and D16 to Ahun.
From here it was cycling over hill and dale on the D18 into
Aubusson.
At Aubusson, some calls to the hostels at Brive and Sarlat, in
the Dordogne region, revealed that they were all booked up for the near future and it was
inevitable that my cycling route turn east into the Auvergne. The hostel here is kind of modern,
one of those run by the town. Dinner at La Masilla ran just over $6.
