cycle touring tip number 2

cycling while wearing jandels and pretending that you are in a criterium down the streets of Lacanau is not a smart idea.

I survived but have had a first hand experience of the french health system.

Injuries sustained amount to some bumps and bruises...

and a broken collar bone.

doh!!!!

On the plus, a handsome young frenchman, called Sylvain (sportif/athletic and a tennis coach) gave me his jersey and bisous.... oh la la

oh well.

Needless to say, Im recooperating in Clermont Ferrand but will head for Paris and the Loire with Kurt (velo-less of course) this thursday.

the bike is fine. Will post some pics of the x-ray too!
