Epeigné-les-Bois: January 2009

Across Epeigné's snowy and frozen lac

Once again I have been spending time trying to arrange my photos in a more sensible order – a time consuming business! Anyway here are a few taken during the snowy spell in early January 2009.

It is many years since I used to be a keen but pretty average amateur cycling time trialist but I have certainly been enjoying this year's dramatic Giro d'Italia. GazzettaTV has regular live streaming of part of every stage here – http://videochat.gazzetta.it/index_giro.shtml. Today is  a very big mountain stage.
