Huningue to Mulhouse

Monday September 24, 2018, 33 miles (54 km) - Total so far: 6,425 miles

(10,339 km)

We knew from the Eurovelo app that the route between Basel and Mulhouse was 'undeveloped but usable'. We expected this to mean that it followed an fairly obvious French cycle route, but this definitely isn't the case!! It all seems a bit random, with some on cycle path but then you get kicked out onto a fairly busy road. We bailed at this point and let our Lezyne GPS app navigate us to Mulhouse. It was a lot less flat, but a lot more pleasant. Tip - Eurovelo 15 follows the Rhine to Mulhouse. Go that way!

We rode straight past the campsite (which was still on its afternoon break) and headed to Decathlon fin search of camping gas. Tip number 2 - go to the other Decathlon (in the north of the town). This one looks like it's winding down and was entirely out of screw-fit gas.

Back to the campsite.....Camping dl'Ill......which is pretty good. These municipal sites have a 'basic' feel about them, but have all the usual facilities. This one was also 70 0.000000e+00mpty, which made for a quiet night! Still chilly though......
