I loved digging up this photo and remembering that day - it was the first day of the "quintet" Burgundy trip, one of favorite weeks on tour
10 months agoIt really was a special afternoon, and well worth all the fast-changing logistics to make it happen.
10 months agoGlad you could laugh! I do think Keith's long arms may give you two a slight advantage - and your reflection selfies are always fun
10 months agoHi Patrick - sorry to take so long to reply. The area does offer a lot for cyclists and hikers as well. There are some great roads and cycle paths, and I regret not doing a bit more route planning/taking more time - it was a last-minute tour that was necessarily short.
10 months agoYou have made me laugh too. Keith and I are always reduced to laughter when we attempt a selfie. We try, but the results are usually hilarious.
10 months agoSo good to see Keith and Sue.
10 months agoIt’s nice to be able to like this photo again! It makes me wonder though if this is the largest CycleBlaze meetup in Europe so far. I remember some quintets (with you and the Meyer-Wearys and Suzanne and Janos) but I can’t think of another sextet.
10 months agoYes, it would have been great fun to all be together. And an epic 3rd Grampies meet-up in one year. We'll have to plan ahead in 2025.
10 months agoOur timing is just ever so slightly off. We are meeting Sue and Keith in Gevrey (Wednesday Oct 2) at the same restaurant you went to, then continuing on to Beaune. Ah well, perhaps next time round we can organize ourselves better.
10 months agoLooks like giant sized croquet balls. ;)
10 months agoI loved reading this, except for the weather. It brought back such great memories, and oddly enough we had the same weather. Wishing you sunny skies.
10 months agoShave and a haircut -2 bits.
10 months agoThanks Keith - it was very helpful to orient me as to how the canals were all connected. I'm amazed that France is able to keep so many of the canals operational given the scarcity of boat traffic I've observed over the last week or so. I've seen more workers mucking out the locks than I've seen boats on the canal.
10 months agoGreat map of the canals.

Have a good trip back and fun planning next year's European sojourn. Hope we see you in 2025.
