Le Grand Tour: Day 6 – Saint-Quentin-En-Tourmon To Dieppe (96km)
Phew! What a scorcherโฆ And itโs apparently going to get hotter. I daubed myself three times today with factor 50 but Iโll be investing in a cap of some description tomorrow (as well of more supplies of the sun cream). Yet Iโm staying well hydrated and fed by the French. Todayโs food has all come courtesy of the toil of French labour; pastries from the boulangerie in Le Crotoy, fruit from a market in the same town and now a three-course meal in Dieppe at a restaurant called Le Sully. So far – a starter of smoked salmon and herring on a bed of new potatoes – so good, but Iโll update you as the meal progressesโฆ I feel like Rick Stein without a film crew (and a bicycle).
