I was reading a travel article yesterday about bicycling through France.
The article was amazing, and the idea is now in my head to go to France for a bicycling trip, at some point.
Cycling past meadows, enjoying the French countryside, having some good French wine and staying in a castle for the night.
What a trip that would be?
Boy, would I love to photograph it as I go.
I found several companies that do this. Take a look here at one of them that looks good.
Unfortunately, I have trepidation with this idea.
I have a bike. And I actually ride it occasionally. But I can’t ride it very long because the seat gets very uncomfortable.
Very uncomfortable.
How does someone ride for 10, 20, 50 miles a day without getting to a point that they are unable to feel anything below the waist and above the knee?
Is there a bike out there designed for these rides?
Do you need a special seat?
I think I need to do some research….unless there’s someone out there that is a cyclist that could help shed some light on this subject.
Feel free to comment.
