Le Tour sponsored by Bengay
The Tour de France is coming in a few weeks though I doubt I'll make the team considering my new found adoration of Bengay for my sore lower back and achy everything else :). I have, however, always wanted to do a bicycle tour of Wales and France. Lonely Planet Guides have started publishing cycling guides, such as Lonely Planet Cycling France, that are really terrific. I wish they had these 10+ years ago when I did a lot of touring with gazetters and topo maps :). For the Bengay set there is also French Revolutions: Cycling the Tour de France which is an amusing travelogue of riding the course...in a much more entertaining and slower fashion :)
