Cycling Miscellany

Sounds cool. I have thought about doing something like that, but staying in hotels every night, which says something about me (that and the fact that I haven't actually done it).

Preach. One of the best trips we've done was a Civil War Battlefields cycling tour that began outside of D.C. and ended up at Gettysburg, visiting several Civil War sites along the way (Harper's Ferry, Antietam, and others). We rode between 30 and 75 miles a day. Each night we stayed at very upscale B&B's with fine dining each evening. Daytime SAG support included excellent lunches (I ate my weight in prosciutto). Our final stop was a very nice B&B that served at General Meade's HQ for Gettysburg. My wife's photobook of that trip remains a treasure.

My two oldest daughters are in Paris for a study abroad. We realized today that they will be there for the final stage in this year's Tour. I am jealous. The route does a little cat 4 up to Sacre Coeur 3 times. I think that or along the Champs would be great places to watch and get free stuff from the caravan.

after watching the neutral mechanic help out in the stage today and do an amazing job of getting that chain back on super quickly, I found this interesting video. Never really thought about it before, but their preparation is really cool.

Interesting stuff. Love the forethought they put into it.
