Felt too hot in my city ( Montpellier ): Took the train to Alès on a friday night after work, climbed 800m of elevation, most of it in the dark, until I could not go any higher, unrolled the bivy bag, got waken up in the morning by the sound of thunder, and then went back home via the great Causses ( Méjean, Causse Noir et Larzac). An awesome week-end overall.

Pretty happy with my minimal setup for this kind of short adventure : the drybag in the back contains bivy, mat and sleeping bag rolled together, the handlebar bag clothes, and the frame bag is long enough to fit a baguette sandwich. I have a tool can under the downtube not visible in the picture.

  1. Sounds awesome!

    I LOVE this area, one of the most beautiful area of France. Went several times near Florac on holidays (but this year, we’ve gone to Millevaches).

    Love your minimalist approach, hope the weather was not too stormy. Out of curiosity, where did you slept ?
