Continue to cycle with Matthew who has to struggle with this old mountain style bike we managed to obtain. Some initial main road cycling but then onto small roads travelling through sleepy villages. Now on the Camino de Santiago route so passing lots of walkers plus more places to spend the night. Stayed in a hostel type place near an old Benedictine abbey; Quite a young couple running it however and a good meal included in the stay. Left early to avoid the heat and am now in the old fortified town of Navarrenx; it is market day and a very tempting display of food is on offer- shame I can not carry more than a picnic lunch. Pyrenees now visible in the distance with snow on top. 48 miles
