The inversion
Gloomy in town, foggy in the foothills. Climb just a bit and it's blue skies.

Settling back into the FoCo rhythm: Rist Canyon yesterday, coffee outside today.
Vintage vibe rando all weekend in Aix-en-Provence. On the train back we ran into Sebastian with whom we rode for a good bit of Le 1000 du Sud, headed home from another 1000k Photos of us, not by me, by @mattperrus
Autumnal equilux ride to the Col de la Machine. The charming bar in Gumiane has been run by the same charming woman for 60 years. She has coke, and a few bottles of beer in the fridge, but no wine. Not enough patrons to open a bottle.
Bedoin is the classic climb, and if you want to gawk at l'émetteur, then definitely, Bedoin. Malaucene is more scenic though. Came down the Bedoin side, needed coffee beans anyway.
