The asymmetry of the towers is quite jarring, to me at least.
2 years agoWhat a ride!

2 years agoOMG! That's terrible!
2 years agoYou two are very adept at riding in Paris traffic! And a great video showing it!
2 years agoMaybe we should move this offline. Why don’t you email me at scoraclife at gmail dot com.
2 years agoThanks for that Scott. I've been working hard at the rehab and in another 3 months I think I'll be good to go! At the moment anticipating only about 21 days (in September) of actual riding so every day will count. The only thing we've locked in is the bike rental from Lyon. On your tour Crémieu, Annecy, Chambery & Grenoble sounded like your favourite stops. What else would you change?
2 years agoYup, and thanks. We passed it on our way out of the city this morning and I paid more attention to its position, just east of the Louvre. Before, I briefly noticed it from the opposite bank on the Pont des Arts and just had a general sense of its location.
2 years agoI looked at it from my office window for 2 and a half years and never got tired of it. Magical.
2 years agoYes!

2 years agoI’m pretty optimistic - very excited about it actually, especially once we make it up to Yorkshire. It won’t be quite as exotic as the Albanian Riviera, but I suspect we’ll enjoy it, and maybe show you something of your homeland that will surprise you. Which part are you from?

Cool picture, Scott! I've never been to Paris - as you say, definitely seems to live up to its reputation.
As a British citizen, I am struggling to picture you having as good a time there as you had in France 😅. Good luck with it!
How does anyone ever visualize, plan, and construct something so complex? I presume there had to have been a master plan, and lots of journeymen and apprentices participating in the actual fabrication; it'd be a life's work for an individual artisan.
