Stage 3, Waregem - Compiègne, 236 kms, Sat 30th June

Stage went fine, no pictures yet. 147 miles is still a long way though and took us all day. Lovely scenery, quiet roads and it's now warm ! Hurrah, we've had enough of rain.

Lovely campsite now, just heading for a beer.

Laura arrived safe and sound and we'll have an eight man peloton tomorrow when Axciom's gang join us.

Main learning so far is that with riding all day there is barely enough time to do anything else. Thankfully Matt's dad is being really helpful and feeding us etc.

Highlights : The longest stage of the tour completed and we are further south so it's warmer.

Lowlights : Two more punctures ! But I think that's was Belgiums dodgy roads and weather, feeling better about France.
