Just found two small books about the culture of bicycling and its place in imagination here. Hopefully they will be as interesting as they will surely be slow going for me with my mediocre French.Suzehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10377189000287900173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1264936256229428266.post-73115965591218072062015-04-22T17:31:02.076-04:002015-04-22T17:31:02.076-04:00Beautiful photos and looks so relaxing too.

And I do agree that drivers' attitudes towards bikes is so completely different here. I think it helps that bikes are seen *not* just as a hobby, but also as a legit means of getting from point A to B. But I must say, the route you took must be is the most generous bike path allocation I've ever seen in France! SarahLaCanadiennehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04919263713629442383noreply@blogger.com
