Welcome,

In the summer of 2008, I started my blogging experience. I wrote about the Epic Summer, my trip to the Tour de France. It was, for sure, a bucket list item for me. I liked blogging well enough that I thought I'd continue to blog about my cycling experiences. It will be an infrequently updated blog, but I hope the updates will be interesting. If nothing else, the exercise should prove useful to improving my rather weak writing and communication skills. Thanks for checking in and I hope you enjoy.

Take care,
Jim Dennedy

Day 6a

Had some time to post a quick message this am. We have a short ride today; I could use the break. It is a 55km ride (34 mi). The ride is considered "lumpy;" meaning rollers, but large rollers. We are riding out to the start of today's stage, Lannemezan, watching the festivities of the race start, boarding the bus to Carcassonne. We'll be there for the next couple of day. Soon, we'll be attempting Mt. Ventoux. They say it is harder than Hautacam, greaaaaat.
