Still, it is awesome having a bike there, don't you think? No one knows you are a tourist unless you open your mouth, and you can check out everything so easily. Cheap wine, cheese and bread too-what more do you need? I did find myself getting pissed off at Parisians in short order when I was there, but maybe I had a bad attitude. There are certainly way better bicycling cities in europe-jump on a train and check them out! How long are you there for?
