Not part of my initial itinerary, but I made it to Paris by train from Issoudon. Spent about 5 days there with Matt and Kelley, frequenting cafes and riding the bike around the streets, great fun. After Paris I caught the train to Grenoble where I stayed for 2 nights in preparation for the ride across the French Alps to Nice. Luckily I didn't need to plan the trip too much as I ended up getting a lift with Kiwi lads Bradley and Daniel. I would have been still riding through those mountains now if I had not have met those two, thanks again guys.
