Day one was a gentle introduction to the Pyrenees...80km of beautiful rolling country punctuated with two modest climbs totalling about 1200m. Weather? Perfect!
The starting group in Biarritz..minus Jim (MIA) and Ben (taking photo)
Ben (an honoury Aussie, here dressed as Captain America) symbolicaly wets his bike in the Atlantic on behalf of those of us more precious about our wheels.
