Shift left!
Once again, Rachael and I want to express our heartfelt thanks to those of you who have joined us for some or all of the past 13 weeks. And we especially want to thank again those who joined us physically along the way: Rich and Robin Frasier, Suzanne Gibson, János Kertesz, and Susan Carpenter. Thirteen weeks is a long time for Rachael to be stuck with just me for company, and your physical and virtual companionship and support has made a world of difference.
Typically journals like this will end up with some sort of recap, post mortem, or list of lessons learned. None of these will be forthcoming though. One, the tour as a whole isn’t rally ended yet; the journal is just passing the baton to the next runner. Two, we’re old dogs and haven’t learned any new tricks of significance lately. Three, even if we had learned anything significant enough to pass on, there’s no time. We leave for England in a few hours and it’s time to pack away our spare euros and shift the mirrors to the right side of the handlebars in preparation for shifting our riding to the left side of the road for the next three months. We hope you’ll join us in the UK for Three Seasons Around France: Summer.

Ron was just talking about how Team Anderson started documenting their travels before bicycle touring was "a thing".
How lucky for us readers that you take the time and care to share your adventures.
Thank you!
When we don't get to hang out in person very often, this is a great way to maintain connection. And to learn about new and beautiful places!
