riding along the lake
18.9.03 Lausanne-Geneve
- Chamonix, 166 km 8:16 h
I left early, Werner wanted to go to uni and I had to do a long
track that day. The sun was rising and you could see over the huge area of lac
leman, that was amazing. It was kind of cold and so I couldn't be bothered to
sit on my bike and ride.

the first part of my track that day: from lausanne
to geneve along the lake
it is getting bright
I packed my stuff together and put it on my bike. After two days riding without
luggage it wasn't easy to start. I was really lucky that I got another gear
ratio, so I wasn't so much afraid of the mountains.

lac leman early in the morning
a town between lausanne and geneve
The riding was kind of boring. It took me about 2 and a half
hours to reach Geneve. Geneve is a really nice town, I guess quite expansive.

I left Geneve towards Chamonix. I had a little bit problems with
the traffic signs (big cities are always a pain in the ass with the bike). The
track was flat and interesting. You could see the high mountains in the back.

don't take the highway
After a while I reached another town, and in
the back, do you know what that is ?????? It is the Mt. Blanc
hmmmmm, quite high
