Changes

A big outward road leads from the city center over bridges over the Dordogne, over the ring motorway and later becomes the motorway A 89 (E 70) to the east. Shortly after it crosses the ring there is a good spot: There is a junction, where all the eastbound traffic from the ring joins. One may ask waiting drivers at the traffic lights or stand beside the road after that, because it is no not a motorway yet. Drivers can see you there, and go slow because normally everyone has to stop at the traffic lights, and there is a broad hard shoulder, where one can safely stop and continue. Few A few hundred meters further there is also a small dedicated fuel station on that road.

edit Freek 06/08/15 (waited 15min at this spot) Take To get there on public transit, take the purple line A (both lines to Dravemont or La Gardette bassens work) from the city center to the stop ''Buttinière''. The line follows a big alley avenue (Avenue Carnot) for roughly 3km. At 'Buttinière you get out and walk along that same Avenure Avenue Carnot for another 1-1.5km passing on your left first the 'Polyclinique de Bordeaux', then a gigantic Carrefour supermarket and stop lights. After the stoplights as mentioned above there is a restaurant, a fuel station and a few ramps where you might try hitchhiking.(User:Freek waited 15min at this spot on 6 August, 2015.)
