and then I found somewhere twinned with Stowmarket
Futher down the route one of my panniers partly came off- I hadn't been checking the nuts and bolts and one must have come loose (idiot!). So I looked for the nut and bolt for a good hour, until giving up, doing a botch job with cable ties and cycling to the nearest village. A kind French family in a farmhouse helped me out and replaced the part I needed, and also gave me some water and chocolate. This was the second time in two days that people had helped out with whatever they could, once you told them you were doing a solo tour.
Here's Chartre cathedral from the distance
