hey everyone, i've ridden 550km so far from narbonne to grenoble, where i am now... last week i came across a small village that was having a running of the bulls with macho guys trying to stop these bulls charging through the streets.. i consider it animal cruelty, but still and interesting discovery anyhow. i took a video but cant upload it because my batteries are dead. anyhow i then rode through the gorges of the audreche and started to hit mountains, ive climbed and crossed two 1000m plus mountain passes and the second one the climate changed from medeterrean/drydesert to a lush cool rainy mountain temperate climate! yesterday i rode along a road cut in the side of a deep gorge that had little tunnels in the side of the gorge wall every so often. now i am in grenoble, where the 1968 winter olympics were... i am going to head norther! i think the mountains only get bigger from here though! i got a couple pictures uploaded...

Nick, it sounds AWESOME over there with the mountains an such, be careful up there and I think it's great that you were able to part with your friend there to do whatever you wanted to do! That's great, I hope you have a great time and I guess you've got your bike back, or at least "A" bike to ride anyways!

All in all though, I got this ONE point, you're having a GREAT time and it's something you will be able to hold onto for the rest of your life...keep on keepin' on babe! Take care and God bless yea in them mountains and on them roads. Safe trip around and home sweetie!
