I posted a last minute invite to ride from my place on Tues 16 June. Papy was the only one that could make it! So, Papy and Balls set off into the "great unknown" that is the "Grand Bois" in France, again... in order to try and conquer the wild French forest!!!
We did a little climb, up behind Ballaison... Papy pumping his (little) legs to try and stay with me...
Once Papy had caught his breath (approx 10mins later) we rode into the woods on top of the hill for a nice single-track decent!
Mandatory selfie on top of the ridge!
And other photos...
Once we'd finished the single track down, and come off the tarmac (Papy still trying to stick with me). Balls top speed: 60.3km/h, Papy... slower!!! Ha!
Papy came into his own when i tried to lead us throught the Grand Bois (aka "Deliverance Woods"). I had the map out, but it didn't work... We came right back on ourselves (we literally rode in a circle to cycle bsck on the same path in the opposite direction!?!?). ;))) I blame Papy! He'll probably say otherwise!!! Typical!
Once we mastered the Deliverance Woods, and we eventually did! Yeah baby!!! We found a number of new tracks through the forests, almost all the way back home! Yeeehhaaa! We'll show you all soon...
We also found a brand new Pizza spot in Hermance (new resto), where we will definitely be wolfing down more than a few pizzas, followed by copious amounts of Limoncello!!! Yes, Christophe, you have some decent competition there...
Here are the pics to prove it!!!
What a great night out!!! Boys and girls, we have to show you all that ride again soon!
Points as follows:
1 for ride organiser - Balls
1 for each rider - Papy & Balls
1 for Mr GPS (we won't get lost) - Papy
More, more, more!!! ;))))))))))
