Oh well, it was a crazy idea to begin with...

I’ve been doing much thinking, and I’m abandoning this idea. It’s not so much the trip there, although that would have been crazy enough, even though I managed to cut the distance down to a mere 160 km. It’s really the trip back that was scaring the cycling shorts off me. Plus, I not only want to enjoy my weekend, but the following week. So I finally faced up to reality and rented a car.

I think it would have been much more doable if I had planned to do this trip in 50-60 or even 100 km bouts, but that wasn’t really practical. The good news is that my cycling trip in Provence will be a snap. For one thing, I won’t have to contend with a tank of a bike that might shiver to pieces at any minute. For another, the longest trek is 63 km, which I did the other day. I hope the wind won’t be as fierce!
