August 11th - Back in France !!!

Home sweet home !
Home sweet home !

Finally after 127 days, i am in France...

I left the winery around 10am after a huge home made breakfast and back on the road towards France. I decided to meet up with Nicolas (another one), Ex owner of the Benelli who lives now in Aix en Provence. We are going to ride together in the Alps until Nice where we will spend the night to his friend house.

The roads from Italy to France by the Madeleine pass at 2000 meters was just incredible. super corners, good temperature, perfect Asphalt . A pure pleasure! 

I arrived at the meeting point a bit late but Nicolas and the KTM were waiting for me...Nicolas cannot believe, he will one day see his previous bike here (In France)...Yes man I made it ! The bike changed a lot since he bought it in 2012 (as you can see from the picture below)

The Benelli 3 years ago ! brand new

It was already 1pm, we stopped in a small village for lunch...Sun, birds, forest and Orangina...I am in France :)

The afternoon was a pure pleasure ! The ride was awesome, small mountains roads with astonishing view in valleys and rivers.

Thats a good way to arrive home, thought small and beautiful roads.

We reached Tourrettes, a small village close to Nice around 6pm ready for tonight party.

Nicolas friend has a house there (pretty nice by the way) and tonight will be a small BBQ beside the swimming pool and the cicada...Cannot be better French welcoming !...Wine, beer , cheese and swimming pool hospitality...Vive la France !

    I've been contemplating bike options for our preschooler, but the option of taking it on hikes isn't one we'd even thought of. Great post! I like the idea of a balance bike and Strider is a great option because our girl plays hard and I want something durable that her little brother can use in a couple of years when she outgrows it. If we had one, we'd use it in the city on walks to the park or in Fish Creek, and definitely in the mountains when we hike this summer. We usually push the Chariot, but this would be nice because she could ride her bike and walk and we could wear our youngest in a hiking
