BTFB...I'd do the France trip. I love France. And also, what size Altura jacket do you have? The husband tried XXL and was nervous it was a bit tight. (Muscle and layers, not fat, honest).What do you think of yours??
Cathryn said:Thanks BTFB....we might check out the xxxl on the internet. You're the same size as the husband now, so if it fits with you, he should be fine.
Excellent weight loss btw (again!!)

Don't leave it too late in September. Summer in the Alps can come to an end with a bump at anytime during that month. It was cold and damp when I crossed about mid Sptember and was closed with snow a few days after that. If you're heading for Nice, there's a few more big climbs to go after that as well!In September just point the bikes south and check out the French Alps. We're interested in cycling over the Col de I'Iseran and finishing in Nice.
