Paris-Brest-Paris

The big ride starts tomorrow, so we took a trip out to St. Quentin En Yvelines where the ride starts and finishes. Today was the bike registration day so everyone was out to show off all their bikes; now if you think that Matt's recumbent is a bit strange you should have seen what came out of the woodwork today!!

On Tuesday we head out to Brest (the halfwaypoint) to have a look at the route and maybe see a few cyclists along the way; we will of course be cheering on the Aussies as well! Will post more bike-related photos then :)

Hi Guys...the pix look great and you both seem to enjoying your trip....some of that rain actually fell here in the last few days too...how is your backpacks holding up or did you have to buy even more clingwrap to keep it together!!!!!
Some of those bikes look very nice and I bet a bit costly as well....
check you later....
