Aire (lay-by)
This is an Aire without services or toilet and screened from the road by a very high wooded bank. I have scored four times in five visits which is a good strike-rate for rural France, but twice involved a long wait. Driving out and in again lets the nervous know you are not just taking a break.
- Best time

The guide
Where exactly
Heading north from Rodez, direction Decazeville/Brive, go through St.-C-V long straight bit passing football pitch and plant-nursery. The parking is on the right behind a high bank. From the North there is a small lay by just after it where you can safely turn round. Cross street: on the D840 (was N140)
Cruisiest spot: Down entrance to field at far end. There is a path onto the bank, which is safer, but not much used as it's a scramble!
When to go
24 hour parking occasional lorries overnight probably not gay. Best times: Mid to late afternoon, weekdays and Saturday. Sundays used by families.
Etiquette
You can make contact and move somewhere more "tranquille" eg a mile or so further north turn towards Conques and look out for track on left into woodland hill about a mile downhill. Some regulars will get you to follow them there or elsewhere.
Safety
None if you accept the limitations described. Some of the guys getting it out just want a pee! Families have kids who also need to pee. Motorcycle cops sometime use it to hide and pull lorries over for checks. They don't take any notice if you act like a motorist taking a break.
