Another hot day forecast, over 30C, so we met early at Everness for a foray out, the first for some while allowing us to take it easy. This was also possible because our B leader was out of town somewhere, so the mice could play. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apologies were received from Paul and Bill and others, and only four of us were out to play. Peter D, Mervyn, Mark 2tts and myself, slightly the worse for wear after a canicular BBQ the evening before. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our aim and single goal was to arrive for lunch at Founex tennis club shortly after midday and before the big heat. With that in mind we set off through the forest across the V river to Gilly and up the bike track to Gex, the latter providing welcome shade. The grinding heat up to Vesancy was quenched by a pleasant coffee\/beer at the Ch\u00e2teau – mercy to Mark, also for the photo. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coffee – or beer..<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We moved on towards a beckoning Bonmont in fine sun, but it was hot, our BLr was away and with time short and now feeling no need or desire to ascend the B hill, we turned right at La Rippe. PedroD led us down through a new lane towards V\u00e9senex and thence to the bike path to Lac Divonne, then left and eventually to Petit Coudres where Mark left us. He had had Covid positives in his family and did not want to run the risk of infecting the rest of us over lunch, so he dutifully fell on his sword. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

PD, Mervyn and I enjoyed some fine beers and lunch courtesy of Ism\u00e4el and his crew at Founex Tennis Club restaurant. Carpaccio de thon was excellent with chips allumettes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not sure how high or how far, but a nice ride to start the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
