Day 2 Le Pont to Fribrough

71 Miles, 5,650'

Woke up to thick fog, but it cleared by the time we left around 9, starting with a short climb over the Col du Mollendruz then a long drop. Most of the day was "Swiss Rollers", up and down (http://app.strava.com/activities/17264811). Overall an easier day today, since there were no long climbs.

It was a tricky day for navigating, but fortunately I had programmed the route into my Garmin GPS. There was only one time that it screwed up, likely from a mistake in the routing, but much easier than vague route sheets and maps - which had others all over the roads.

Mostly riding through farmlands (sunflowers, corn, sugar beets, etc); nothing exceptional, but very nice riding on great roads, temps in the upper 70s. Three photos from today:
