Breakdown
France: Bayuex to Briançon. 685 Miles-22 Days.
From the 3rd snowiest winter in the history of Minnesota to the green rolling hills on the coast of Normandy. I found myself on quite the journey just getting to France. It took 1 car, 3 planes, 2 trains, and 2 bike rides to get me from my front door to Hugo’s. I was more than prepared for the journey, with nothing but a week before our official send off, I took the time I had to do a bit of exploring around Normandy and joining Hugo for a few local interviews, send off dinners, and some well needed test riding for Hugo. With our last meal and a bottle or two of champagne & wine, we finally find ourselves sitting on our saddles while surrounded by a small crowd filled with locals, news journalist, friends & family to Hugo, and the mayor himself.
