Today's route took me back to Relleu! The reason being I wanted to cycle on a couple of roads I'd so far not traversed.

What I didn't photograph was the many gel wrappers discarded by the racers at a feeding zone I cycled through. I thought the whole point of having a feed zone was to facilitate a proper clean up and disposal of waste. All rather disappointing to see!
