Ride: 35km
13-23 deg
We
rode back to Basel via the Swiss side which was not very picturesque but
interesting just the same mainly due to the nice houses, countryside and
forests. Started out cool with drizzle and stayed that way without too much
rain. Arrived in Basel for mornos at Starbucks; the first decent coffee I’d had
since I started this ride! Graham hates
Starbucks. It took lots of stuffing around to find a hotel. Eventually got to
the hotel, Alpha (CHF 130 ea for two nights) about 1:40pm and after checking
in, we caught the tram into Basel and walked around the city. Saw things such
as the Moving Fountain, Rathaus, Munster, etc. I had dinner back at the hotel
in the restaurant.
