A long way from Lancefield



Have had a short note from Andy....

Hiya Steve
Hope the temperature has risen above zero. Here it gets up to mid twenties but is a bit humid. Likely to rain for the next two days. Today the ride is to Vichy for the picnic. Everyone is going well, no signs of homesickness from the Kerries. We did a picnic in the park near here last night, lots of chicken, ham, red wine, beer and Rose'. For other meals we have been to the Semaine Federale restaurants which is good fun. The night before last we had 17 year old Jack writing on the service totes communicating to an 84 year old who had been coming here for years and on the other side was a Frenchman from Chartes who has done PBP 3 times, is on the organising committee for sf2017 and has atrial fibrillation!
Today is the picnic to Vichy - about 70 ks return. Ken and John came through there on the way to Saint Pourcain and haven't stopped raving about it.
My legs and neck are starting to recover after the long touring days. Mate's shoulder and neck is still playing up  - ask her how many Neurofins she is taking!
Got to get ready to ride.
Cheers
Guru.
