Nice trip Rusty, I went through most of those places when I rode the rode the Tour De France a couple of years ago, Only problem then was that the bridge wasn't open then!

Nice one Rusty. I just was here.

Latest weather report for Donington shows rain and not more than 20°. $:-\$

I'll be off to Kruse later today to dump my stuff into their truck.

Have a nice trip, Rusty! Maybe go through George du Verdon on the way to Como? Plenty of bends to enjoy!

I went over Millau not long after it had opened. Just incredible.

Rusty / Fran - if you've got time drive down into Millau itself and get a look at the viaduct from ground level. It's amazing!!!

The Millau bridge is really a fine piece of work. Went over it last month on my way to the south of France! But driving over it isn't as spectacular as on the Pont de Normandie, which is smaller, but very "open".

About Donington: the extended weather forecast says dry and sunny!
