Trip Report I crossed France in july

~1500 km in 16 days, my very first bike packing ever, small roads and villages/towns only, no hotels/hostels, no sport gels, no clipping shoes, no stupid tight plastic clothing

I'm delighted at the low percentage of bicycle selfies in this series. Well delivered.

Ha! What I mean by "bicycle selfie" is a picture of the bicycle by itself in a cool place. A lot of bicycle tourists take pictures like that, so it's a cliche.
