Driving through vineyards & tree tunnels... en route to Bordeaux. What could this be all about?!

Random shot from the road, just outside village of Quintaine. Am a sucker for rolling vineyards & a little church.

Easy morning ride through vineyards & villages of southern Bourgogne. Impressive monastery in Rimont. Lovely area.

Today's dawn ride: river Rhone, sheep, canals, Lac du Bourget, a tiny chapel, col du Chat & Jongieux vinyards. Phew!

Jolly to Saint Mont for a little degustation du vin today. Lovely area. Thanks to the chauffeur team for driving

Second ride of the day: short cool down with Pratiwi, who also tried #HaySurfing for the first time Not bad! grin

Waking up between vines in Provence... feels pretty good to be back on the road!

Sunrise from a German vineyard. You have to love the random parking spots they lay on around here (Rhine valley).

Ride from the Med coast up brutal climb (20%+ ramps), past vineyards, a castle & lakes. You know, the usual stuff

Waking up next to vines is very nice too! Think we paid 5EUR for privilege & got a free bottle of wine thrown in! grin

When I say we've been getting the chance to park by vineyards, I mean: right next to them! Nice evening for it too!

Post ride beer. In a vineyard. Feels a little wrong, but, meh! Top beer recommendation BTW. Lot of variety here

Great spot tonight, between the vines just South of Frankfurt. Lovely evening too so can see the city to the North.

Driving around German countryside. Vines looking a bit bare, but still lovely here. This is just above Birkweiler.

An unkept vineyard? In Autumn? On a sunny day? Sounds more like a photo op to me!

Love autumn colours in the vineyards. Great views everywhere in Tuscany at the mo. Well - year round I'm guessing!
