Sigh. That sounds AMAZING!

I will be. I plan on renting a renovated barge. They are very cool, and cheaper than hotels and even apartments for longer stays. And you can tour the canals. Plenty of room for the Bike Friday.

Hmmmm...I could sell my house and just buy one over there. I'll have to give that some more thought.

Yep the tour will be in my neighborhood.

Oh tulip, since Belgium is not too far from Bordeaux... is there enough space on your boat?

I've wanted to be a Tour groupie and follow the route with a tour company for several years now. I'll be 50 next year, so think this will be how I celebrate the half century.

hmmm ... let's talk this weekend.

I will admit, I searched around for some hotel rooms last night.

Anyone up for l'Etape du Tour with me? Col de Marie-Blanque, col du Soulor and OMG the mutha-effin' Tourmalet.

-- gnat! (thinking that instead of Death Ride next year...)
