Riding the larger Gorges du Verdon Loop

Hello! I am looking to ride the big Gorges due Verdon Loop that includes La Palud, Trigance, and Aiguines. My question is: does anyone have any recommendations regarding whether to do this clockwise or counter-clockwise? The post below details the experience of riding it CW, but my cycling guidebook suggests CCW. I am curious if anyone in the group has done this ride before and might be able to offer some insights/recommendations? My main objective is to enjoy the views of the gorge as I ride.

Ok, so we were watching TV on our new QM67K last night and I made a comment about David Suchet's role as a Muslim villain in the Harrison Ford vehicle Air Force One and then this morning the Roku showed me a digital poster with ways to access the film. Clearly, the app (or our TV) is listening to us. I can't see this being a coincidence. Has anyone else had such an experience? If so, have you confirmed the surveillance (and it source) and found a way to disable it? it's not clear to me whether or not this is a TCL issue, a Google TV issue, or a Roku issue (or anything beyond a rather improbably coincidence).

Hello! I am looking to replace the rusted multitool that has long resided in my road riding seatbag. In the process, I am hoping to go with a smaller and lighter modern option. Does anyone have any faves they might recommend? TIA

Hello! I am hoping that someone here might be able to help me. I am looking to move away from the stock tires on my '21 TCR, but my go-to GP 5000 S TRs seem as though they won't work now as the 30MM version have a max hookless PSI of 65 and I am about 98kgs. Does anyone have suggestions for a similarly fast tubeless tire in 30mm that would work with my rims and would take a PSI up to 72? I've been working from the list below, but haven't identified any appealing options (the Corsa N.exts looked good, but I think they'll be too slow). Vittoria Corsa Pros are the obvious answer, but their limited durability and puncture resistance is giving me pause. Any ideas or input would be most appreciated.
