We attempted to do a 180 km cycling from Dieppe to Rouen by visiting some northern towns and villages. A usual 55km journey direct to Rouen turned 120km more. And that is tough with a loaded saddlebags, and trying to be fast to avoid sunset plus 3 punctures. We ended up cycling, resting and repairing for 13 hours elapsed time in total wit 1300 metres of elevation gain, and 21kmh average pace. We almost surrender and opting to take an uber instead, but the slow puncture, was not fixed but it cooperated in the last 16 km to Rouen. We arrived before sunset. And that made us relieved and happy. A big sigh!
