I usually take a bag of jelly babies / wine gums out and nibble as I go. Bit of soreen, cereal bars or energy gels too.

French roadbikers are seriously cool. I get a big cheer and a wave whenever we cross paths. Sleeping in a tent in the woods tonight. Waiting for it to get dark so I can go to sleep without fear of being spotted. Closest Tinder match is 60km away. Fucking French countryside.

Definitely jealous, gonna do some touring this summer I reckon
hugh.:
Pouring rain today so I'm hiding from it in a coffee shop.
Wondering why I hadn't started touring sooner. Loving it.

Everything arrived today so I got her 99% finished, just need to get the hoses shortened and swapped over (currently European config) & get a new barrel adjuster for the deurailure then she's done. Steerer will get trimmed to suit once I get the height sorted.
hugh.:
In Chemilé now. Should be in Poitiers by tomorrow. Got a guided tour in broken English of a bike shop in Azé yesterday. Dude had a load of cool bikes from the 70-90s. Some sweet Italian steel in there! Including a nice AWD mountain bike. No photos allowed though :(
Super glad I went with downtube shifters instead of bar end ones. Keep smashing bar ends off stuff lol. No mechanical failures yet though!
