To Mirepoix

The night was dry and windy, so my washed clothes were completely dry and I could pack them in the planners.
My first part were the 6 km back to the Canal. Then from Argens-Minervois the path near the Canal was very narrow and the roots of trees and and the wind from the west slowed down speed to 11 km/h.

In Carcassonne you have to find the cycle path yourself, because the small signs are hidden somewhere.
After Carcassonne two English-speaking ladies stopped me. They were disoriented though they had a rough map.TransFrance_201407286127
Near Faux I left the Canal and started Top Club for the frist pass: col de la Malpère, just about 400 m. The Roadster in Myanmar route have very sparse traffic, which is good
On Moulin Neuf I change to a former railroad. The name voie verte is correct: the green grass overgrowths the path and some 4 km later it is muddy.
I pitched my tent at a camp site at Mirepoix.
Today about 114 km.
