Annual French bike trip

[miller1098]

Just got back from another hospital visit for a small operation yesterday that I had put off because of our little bike trip to Bort les Orgues in central France.We stay in a gite with Eric and Joelle arranged by a Michelin star chef from London who rides with us and local guys that show us around,it's brilliant My bike got stolen from the bike shop around Xmas the insurance paid for a new one so it was my first time on it.the best I've ever ridden.unfortunately I'm not going to be throwing my leg over it for a couple of weeks,

Sometimes I wish I was still into bikes, especially when I see photos like these with guys really enjoying themselves. Keep doing it Hugh

This bunch of crazy bikers are a real therapy! I met them in RO, two years ago.
Great places in the pics!
It's good you came back in one piece, despite the fact that you went directly in the hospital, for another "procedure".
I hope you will recover very quick as the wedding is so close... !
And enjoy the Husqy! I heard they are really good and can " chaine"almost everything!

Why haven't you bought a planer yet Hugh? Much easier joining boards than sanding the full width! Glue, a biscuit joiner and clamps are much easier on the arms, JIM

Hi got a couple of planers but the width of my boards is to wide for my thickneser and it's not really the look we're going for
