Bayeux to Villedieu-des-poels

We made our way out of Bayeux feeling quite rested, stuck to the d road and made good time to arrive in St Lo 37km later. However, the municipal campsite we found on the internet didn't exist and the nearest one was another 20km away. So fuelled by a fruit tartlet we powered on to Tessy sur Vire to arrive at a campsite  which was closed for a festival. Feeling pretty tired at this point but had to carry on for a few more km to the next site in Domjean, which was an aire naturelle, and of course the owner was away but pitched up anyway and hoped we wouldn't get turfed out. Luckily nobody seemed to notice and we saved a few euros! Nice hot showers in the morning. Headed out to Villedieu d/p and realized there was a river side cycle path all the way from the coast, past Bayeux, St lo and a fair way down to Villedieu d/p! We got on the tail end of it down to Pont Farcy. Most of it was standard towpath clay and fine gravel, but at points it got a bit more 'naturelle' and turned into single track at points. The tandem and trailer coped really well and we made good time. What followed was a succession of long steep climbs followed by long descents. Tired we pitched up in V d/p and decided to stay 2 nights. Just chilled out really. Watched a local ?petanque? Tournament. Really impressive and quite hypnotic. Moving on tomorrow.
