Our journey from Beziers to Arles was a bit eventful as while crossing the camargue a flat wetlands area, we ran low on fuel, after leapfrogging every time we went round a roundabout for about 10km we finally ran out of fuel luckily manage to freewheel into a lay-by.
After contemplating what to do (the nearest fuel was 10km away, according to google) we spotted a car coming out of a gate between trees the other side of the road, after speaking with the driver she very kindly said wait here as she went back home and returned with a few liters of red diesel.
With this we managed to just about get to the garage to fill up, unfortunately Gurty was still running very rough, we had obviously picked up all the crud from the bottom of the tank blocking the fuel filter and we also noticed that the rubber fuel priming pump was leaking obviously sucking in air, still we managed to get to the camping at Arles for that night.
