August 23, 2023,Rhône Tag 3, mit Fettstoffwechseltraining nach Lyon

In addition to today's 41 degrees max, we had the problem that we couldn't buy any food until km 112!!!
Either there were no shops or they were closed between 12pm and 4pm.
So the emergency ration of 2 rolls and 1 🍎 had to be enough.
A pharmacy with water saved us from dehydration.
