Default Six weeks in France

Just got back home from 6 weeks cycling in France.

It was probably the worst trip of the last several years and everything that
could go wrong did go wrong!


Now reajusting to an English keyboard!

The rain I endured was quite amazing at times but there were nice days
occasionally. My cyclists tan is rust --- not from the sun

More later after my bath --- 2 hour soak I reckon

This does not bode well for the trip report which I was looking
forward to. I like much of the area you were planning on touring
but I have never had the change to cycle it.

Sorry to hear it was so bad.

On the bright side it should make for an interesting trip report

I'd been wondering how you were getting on - glad you got back safely.

Sorry to hear that Trevor. Did you take the recumbent trike? My own
French holiday had perfect weather about a month ago. Now instead I'm
just back from Dublin, where I went to get out of the rain!

Cheers,

Ah, so it's you that's been dragging that cold front all over the show.
Just bloody leave it where you found it.
