66 km today. Much easier!
Riding through history. Every km has a story to tell. For the 75th anniversary of D-day there are 4×5 ft photos all along the Eurovelo 4 cycle route with stories of the various battles, the towns involved and in what way. This particular region was covered by American troops.
WWII Normandy photos. June 6th to August 12th.
