Biking Along the Canal du Midi

We had a great day biking along the Canal du Midi. We started in Toulouse, of course, and cycled out of the city. The path follows the canal and is bordered by trees the entire way, keeping it nicely shaded. It was easy to go further than we had anticipated. We ended up in Montgiscard, which is about 20 km from Toulouse. We stopped to eat lunch in the village square and then back on the bikes to ride home. It was a very pleasant ride and, needless to say, we all felt a little sore by the end.
