Where do you feed in France on a Sunday (sounds like a lead up to a joke) ?
Alps are going to be interesting - I've frozen most times I've bivvied in the UK but now it's warmer and the TCR will be warm so I'm unlikely to freeze to death but I'm an idiot when it comes to mountains and weather and stuff. Middle of summer in France and I climbed Croix du duh dela dulloooalla Fer alright but my fuck did I think I was going to die descending that fucker in the after the torrential rain!! So cold my teeth still chatter thinking about it. All the guys that stayed in the hotel while it was pissing down went out and did it in the afternoon in the glorious sunshine of course..
I currently have 4-5 variations on the course from the final checkpoint to the finish.
1st went north avoiding Kosovo, through Bulgaria and down
2nd went straight through Kosovo, then Maced then Greece
3/4/5 are all variants going through Albania that try to avoid Kosovo or just the E65 in Kosovo after a racer told me it was awful/dangerous.Problem with all my routes going further south to avoid E65 in Kosovo is they all add on about 100k/1000m climbing. :(
If anyone has any tips or knowledge of the E65...

I definitely wished I had created some route notes last year especially for night riding and France on a Sunday.
I'm also going to have a few hotels in mind for the Alps, don't want to freeze to death in a thunderstorm
Are you still going through Albania?
