Eclectus

I see what you mean. France or other European countries, like Spain, Italy, Switzerland, Portugal et al. I've never been to France, but my MIL and FIL love it (they are fluent French speakers). My FIL went to French schools and worked in Marseilles for a couple years. They go there a lot. Me. I only took 3 years of French. I wanted to take more, but my school screwed me.

If you come over here, you can stay with us, but you don't want to visit Kansas. Go to Cali, it's got any kind of riding you want. It's the best place America has to offer to cyclists, maybe the world.
