In 2005 I took my bike on a plane to Paris and navigated my way down through the Loire Valley and finished my small bike tour just beyond the city of Tours. I was overwhelmed by how easy and entertaining it was to bike long distances through the unbelievably scenic roads of France. I knew it wouldn't be the last time I would do such a trip. In 2006 a cheap flight found the day before, launched me into another two week trip. This time the bike portion lead me from Paris through Normandy with the coastal wonder of Mont St. Michel as the destination. I couldn't help but heed the pulse of the rolling hills and winding roads of France to do it yet again in 2007. This trip is different in several ways. We are starting just north of Paris in St. Quentin and traveling through Alsace to finally end up in Switzerland. I'm more prepared than on previous trips, and the most important difference is that Chrissy Thompson is with me. We are going to write this blog together.
Here are videos I created documenting the previous two years of my Journeys in France.
