If it's not snowing in Paris in June I'm not sure I'll cope! Sitting in the warm now, I am glad I made the trip; it's another 55 miles closer to Paris and I learnt something about both cold (freezer bags can help protect the feet from the cold - shame I only tried it at around 40 miles) and nutrition (pretzels and licorice - not together- work nicely, and I should have eaten something at 1.5 hours, 2.5 hours and 3.5 hours). It's also not been a bad week overall - over 100 miles in training, nearly £300 sponsorship including my first commercial sponsor and surely we must be close to spring springing!

Actually, real food (pretzels, licorice, bagels, cereal bars) may work just as well as energy bars and gels.

Hahaha I like the pics!
Nice one Nigel, you seem to have had quite a week!
Fair play to you! I felt a bit sorry for you as I watched you cycle up the road with the snow pelting down. I admire your determination, that must be where Eoin gets it!
