Regulator Rides on Paris.

The promised sunny weather also hasnt materialised yet - but at least it isn't raining.

Once through Gournsy en Bray, I'll need to make a decision - longer route or shorter route. If it's still overcast then shorter route may win...

Looks like it will be a sunny day here in Somerset and @User14044 says there are blue skies over the Lakes.

You're going to need a stronger bike Man!!

You never said you were slumming it.

Have you been conspiring with @Markymark ?

Wait until you see where I'm staying tonight...

I like the look of that a lot.

good stuff so far. that black pudding concoction looked lovely.

 

[dellzeqq]

how are you getting out of Gisors, Reg?

Oh - there's a very decent bike shop in the middle of town if you need supplies - Espace Velo in the Rue de Vienne.

Wednesday 7 September

I have something of a rumbly tummy (not in a good way) so the executive decision has been made to avail myself of the train, to get past the hilly bits planned for this morning

Did the taxi not stop when hailed?

 

[Levo-Lon]

Id blame that cheese...

 

[Crackle]

Id blame that cheese...

Or possibly the dessert. Maybe the first day 1 mains or the starter. Could have been the wine too or yesterdays dodgy Pate. It's a risky business credit card touring.

Wednesday 7 September

I have something of a rumbly tummy (not in a good way) so the executive decision has been made to avail myself of the train, to get past the hilly bits planned for this morning (and to give the meds time to kick in).

I shall rearrange the day but it looks like I may get to Paris this evening.

First I shall be relaxing in my jacuzzi:

with a beer. Just the thing to sort out any aches and pains.

FTFY

What kind of establishment is this? Just looked at their "escapades" page out of idle curiosity - packages including
Contents of selection: Massage oil and lubricant two-in-one, four romantic candles, a silky eye blindfold, a pen, a vibrating ring.
I know I've led a sheltered existence, but what on earth is the pen for?

Edit: Just looked at the original French version, and it's a plume, i.e. a feather.
This starts to make more sense now.

The French version gives ''plume,'' which is more likely to be a feather.

(I appear to have just been pre-TMNed.)

@Mad Doug Biker would like it here. It has a terrace, overlooking a beautiful green communal space with ponds and veggie being grown (although the veggies might scare him) - and in the background are the main rail lines into Gare du Nord, with all the TGV etc parading themselves before you.

I would like to join @Mad Doug Biker on the terrace.
