Plans

When at work, I noticed the daily coordinates were only about 11 km from my location. I decided I would bike there on my way back home.

Expedition

I left work at 19:40, followed the Rhone river northwards, took the Tunnel de la Croix-Rousse, followed the Saône river until Saint-Rambert, where I noticed the path I wanted to take was closed to bicycles. I headed back, climbed a steep street named rue Louis Bouquet, continued through Saint-Cyr-au-Mont-d'Or and Saint-Didier-au-Mont-d'Or and reached the coordinates at Les Gorges bus stop at 20:35 having climbed about 200 m.

It was easier and faster on the way down.

Then I forgot to document the expedition for almost a year and a half.
