Thanks Keith - Burgundy remains one of my favorite regions of France and I will definitely be in touch if I'm in the area!

Thanks for your comment Paul. My French is pretty rudimentary but I am not hesitant to use it. I find people in Paris usually switch to English after I've said just a few words while folks in other parts of France seem more tolerant/comfortable communicating in French - always with some English thrown in when we reach an impasse!

Susan Carpenter commented on Beaune to Pouilly-en-Auxois

Suzanne - I really did not have much of a choice. I was not going to backtrack uphill on that dirt road. I wasn't too concerned about running into the landowner/farmer as the people I met in France we so welcoming and helpful. Cows are usually not aggressive, but a bull might have been a different story!!

Suzanne, I'm delighted that you're enjoying the journal - thank you! I've been very impressed with the increasing bicycle infrastructure in France - based on what I've observed, they are really trying to promote cyclo-tourism. I look forward to reading the journal of your adventures in the Rhone Valley.

The sign is confusing, but it I'm ignoring any rule requiring me to ride across that bridge!

Thanks for all your advice/comments during the trip - it helped me decide to take the train to Macon, which was a great decision!

Susan,

The next time you come to Burgundy give me a holler. My wife (also Susan) and I live in Gevrey Chambertin and if you are in the neighborhood, as you were , it would be fun if you could stop by. Or at the least we could meet for lunch or dinner.

Cheers,
Keith
