A hike on the southern slopes of Mont Ventoux with Melissa and Christopher.

A beautiful hike on the southern face of Mont Ventoux, with cherry trees in full bloom.

Climbing from the  village of Bedoin to midway up the mountain...

... to centuries-old shepherd's huts lost in the hills. Well, not so lost. We found them.

Descending via the Curnier canyon.

Good thing I didn't have too much to eat at lunch. It's a tight squeeze.

Reconnaissance around the village of Aurel

Contrary to what the sign may suggest, I survived the climb.

 my new Bike!!!!

I'm currently updating notes for the new and improved self-guided cycling holiday:
Freewheeling through the Luberon

And I've been using one of our Trek FX hybrid bikes: smooth, fast, efficient, comfortable...

Today's ride:
+ 10 perched villages
+ 75km (days 3 and 5 of above program)
+ 1050m in total elevation
= a fantastic day
I still can't believe I get paid to do this...
