And here's the 'new old bike' - a 1970's one (bought from a friend) that I'm calling 'Falcon Two', as I bought 'Falcon One' a few weeks ago. The saddle will have to do for now. The bike will be emigrating to the French house, where it'll live, both for trips to the market (the rack will be useful for carrying back trays of local peaches & nectarines), and if someone stays for a day or two and doesn't want to hire a bike.

Hello Geoff, just had look at your proposed route through France for next year. It looks great and whats more it would seem as though you will almost pass by my door ( l live very close to a small town name of Prayssac 46. ) in the Lot. If you need a break for shower, food, wash kit or whatever drop me a line and l will give you directions to our door. Bon route !

What a lovely offer. Thank you so much. Might you be kind enough to send me a private message with your contact details?

Actually, having checked, my route's not close to you I'm afraid. Sad, but thanks for the thought.

No problem, have a safe and enjoyable ride. Look forward to reading your account of it next year .

I know that MileStone well, but invariably see it from the opposite direction, on the 'TurnPike'

My Octavia's gone in for a service, & an investigation as to why it's gone into 'limp mode'
It's at our regular, & very much trusted, garage

I've got this as a courtesy vehicle
Just parked up, on 'College run'
