Tuesday 28 Aug - leaving Moissac


Last day in paradise for this year!  Greeted by the sound of heavy rain around 6am. Put a dent in my plans to get the bikes and other stuff inside early, since they were now all wet. So proceeded to do other cleanups and packing while waiting for the winterisation to start around 9am. Worked along with Iain as he changed the oil, the oil filters, the fuel filters and the pre-filter. Then emptied the water tank, pressurized the pipes with air, then filled everything with antifreeze. Then filled the tank with diesel - only used 436 litres in two years. Finished about 1pm, by which time the sun was out and the bikes had dried. So put the four bikes plus gangplank and other stuff into the salon for the winter.

Then locked up and gave the keys to Kaz and Iain. Left Moissac at 3.18pm. Arrived in Bern at midnight, exactly 8hrs and 42mins as GoogleMap had predicted.
