Cycling to Ypres
After navigating our way out of the ferry port at Dunkirk, always fun jostling with all the lorry traffic coming off the ferry, we hit Loon-Plage and quieter roads. We head for breakfast at Bergues, via Crawick and Brouckerque. Coffee and pastries in the square while the bells of the Belfry of Bergues rang was glorious.
Lunch at La Poupée in Poperinge, then on to Ypres, through the covered up Menin Gate. Quick drink at The Times before heading to our B&B at Varlet Farm. 50 gentle miles in beautiful weather, and unusually no winds.
