<p>Today we rode 120km on smooth but uninspiring secondary roads. We saw relatively little agriculture, but lots of towns and villages, as well as a number of building projects along the road, although there was no evidence of prosperous industry. There were no tractors or bullock carts on the road, but quite a few private cars.
It seemed like country side without a purpose. Where our support van stopped to set up our picnic lunch, there was a patch of flat gravel ground which had been surveyed, divided up into lots with no positive aspects, such as trees, water, or a nice view, and there was a tent set up to serve refreshments to prospects .... in the middle of nowhere!
Saw a Juggernaut parked on the main street of one of the villages. Without any decorations, it looks rather sombre, but it is probably covered with flowers when it is used in a procession.
The hotel is in a smaller regional center than last night, and it is very basic. I am looking forward to getting back to the seaside. </p>
