Having caught up with Ross H set about educating him in the fineries of getting the most out of a European continental breakfast - go back for thirds !
Well fed we struck out in search of a bike shop to have Ross`s bike looked at as it appeared to have been damaged in flight on the way over - obviously by a kiwi unfriendly baggage handler !
There was little else to do for the Aussie boys other than to YouTube how to undertake various bike brake adjustments and go out for a walk in this town full of trams
We stacked up on protein & some carbs in prep for our stage 1 ride through the beautiful Jura region of Switzerland approx 300 kms about 1/2 of which is off road.
Tomorrow also sees us tackling our first small Col which could be testing for the men down under who have yet to do any serious climbs !
Its been relaxing resting up and having our own hotel rooms but its time to head for the French Pyrenees !
You are doing well, boys. 1500km now behind you, your conditioning must be about to peak, just in time for the cols of Switz/France in preparation for the Pyrennes, piece of pxxs!
