Highways and byeways in froggy land
... blind spot and I was too busy looking for a road sign to double check. No chance of a crash but as he was tearing round he had to slow down. No blood no foul as they say. Must be a couple of thousand miles driving here and I still havnt got it 100% which is 50% better than most of themfroggies. Today we stopped to buy some confit and fois gras as we were in the land of said. I parked as the froggies do. (anywhere you bloody like) but the elderly woman ...

Unleashed
Took Henry out without any bags and gave him a damn good run in the lovely back country roads. The rain was threatening and the temperature had dropped so I layered up before heading off. I even turned the heated grips on!
Headed over to Domfront which is a lovely Medieval town perched on the top of a hill. The Chateau was a ruin but the houses in town were still original. I rode on to Mortain where they have a great Municipal Campsite in the middle of ...
