Afternoon stroll: Col de Beyrede to ridge above. Just made snow line. Spectacular & one of the best short walks here!

Snow on local 'hills' so autumnal tonne up to Rabastens-de-Bigorre & back. Beautiful roads. Amazing variety here

Does @Nigel_Farage realise if he emigrates to USA, instead of being confronted with a few strong words it could be guns? Good luck Nige!

Sunrise from the front door. #Tropical

Heading out to lunch with the local bike club. Random view on the trip there. Lovely & warm in the sunshine today

We've been provided with a lovely traditional room this evening. Little nippy here but so comfy & cosy in that bed!

Bonjour Paris! And... au revoir. Not a bad morning for a quick walkabout.

La Chouffe is fantastic beer & rare to find it on tap. Cheers! #CentralParisPricesMadeThisMostExpensivePintEver!

Free WiFi/charging desk at Tarbes train station. Well... free so long as you pedal. Great idea & saw kids using it!

So people in UK/USA think Brexit/Trump stick it to the establishment? You do realise who put those choices before them, right? #NoRealChange

Another random countryside walk. More curious cattle. Such a relaxing time

Short walk near Lac de Payolle. Well, it' can't be glorious sunshine all the time & besides, I quite like the mist

Short stroll to check out our new locale. Love how the inquisitive neighbours look up from their morning snack

Chatting to local about huge mushrooms he just picked from his field. He insisted we take them to try. So lucky! Yum!

With 2x Tourmalet & a club ride in the legs already this week time to relax & enjoy the view. Mission accomplished

Approaching Luz-Saint-Sauveur on another Tourmalet tonne. Top tip: take the road to Sassis for this riverside view

Taking a 'nature break' while out riding. Had to snap these beautiful crocus flowers by the roadside. Love Autumn!

Dear @Garmin, latest firmware update on Edge 520 froze my device than caused factory reset. Had to setup from scratch! #SupportFail #Morons

Media pushes fear & hate, which leads to conflict, leads to innocents suffering, which media use to sell copy. Ignore the mainstream media!

Chatting to the neighbours... Moooooooo!

Up early today. Things to do & all that! If you had to work in this area this would be your daily commute. Yerch!

Early flat aside what an awesome day out on the bike. Biggest ride of the year. In fact biggest ride since 2010!

Autumnal beer in the evening sun. Cheers!
