Vive Le Tour!

So the Tour was amazing and all I can say about Paris is that it is the most amazing place I have ever ridden. I'm talking about riding along dead flat, dead straight roads where every light you come accross is a green. Even the cobbles on the Champs Elysee are smoother than roads in England.

We met some real cool guys too, we pretty much just shouted "Fixie" (lame I know) at any riders we saw but it worked everytime, apart from the dude who sprinted off when we shouted it. Apologies to the guys we met (guy on the Merican, guy on the yellow track frame and single speed dude) as I cannot remember any of their names. Apart from being branded Fakengers by some stuck up hipsters on the champs elysee, everyone we met was nice.

Sadly we couldn't find Cyclope and when we finally found out where it is, it was sunday and it was shut. But we know where it is now for next time, which will hopefully be very soon.

Sam posted the best of the pictures, but heres some more anyway.
