July 2, 2024,🇨🇵 Durch die Lavendelfelder nach Riez
Today was a very nice tour with lots of lavender in a fantastic landscape. On the way there we had to push the bike for a section. It looks very beautiful when the grain fields and lavender fields meet.

The tour was actually supposed to go to Lac de Saint Croix, but a huge storm came up. Riding my folding bike was a bit difficult, I was worried that the battery wouldn't last for the way back. What a pity.
