Today came very early. We all got up early in the a.m. to get in early. The highways were even sparse of cars compared to normal. Robert, Craig and I went out for a long ride which is posted above it was enjoyable we hit a section of the famous Pavé and my water bottle cage broke... a well it's a cross bike. Craig and Robert road on the side like sensible pros should. What's interesting is getting into Belgium via a main roads easy, finding a way back to France on a minor road... took a while and the boarder we think was just a little speed bump.
Peter on the other hand went out and rode the course of the Paris - Roubaix seven sections came home very very late we were quite concerned... Not Pete he was singing coming in, talked to neo-pros, coaches, took photos at the velodrome... got a map of the race from someone else. Silly us for being concerned. If your of the Paris Road cycling group you will hear more about this ride and I will leave it to the true author of the story.
Any how today was one of those fantastic days when we went through the square of Tournai everyone was out dinning and drinking. So after our ride we went out into the garden of our house and had wine and beer and Robert, Sigrid and I chatted... well Robert and Sigrid chatted and I butchered the French language as only I can. Then Robert and I went off to make dinner and be worried sick about Peter who was having the time of his life... Phtt! on Peter. He's home and you'll have to ask him for the details.
