Today was a rainy day but i didn't care as the wind was at my back. Rode through some beautiful small towns and had more awkward exchanges with people who couldn't communicate with. Thems the breaks, i should have learned some French. I think the most surreal part of the day was i ended up on a mountain bike trail into the hotel which is a very nice resort in Chantilly. Picture below. No encounters with Police, no wipeouts, not bonking, no cramps. Just an all around good day and i look forward to Paris tomorrow. Its been an incredible adventure and i am so happy we have been able to provide wishes to 4 children. Thats what its all about. I'm an emotional guy so i'm sure i will have a moment tomorrow when it hits home. This wasn't just a long ride.
before it ends i wanted to say they are playing 'rock you like a hurricane' by the scorpions in the hotel bar now. And i'm in a VERY nice hotel. Hilarious. Gotta love the contrast.
As the days have gone on my body has adjusted and is not exhausted at the end of the day. it expects this and i wonder what it will do when the repetition stops tomorrow.
I tend to go on and on so i'll stop myself now and will blog tomorrow when i arrive on the Champs Elysees.
Some pics from today
