After a rather unfortunate breakdown at the end of the 3rd day, cycling on a cobbled street made my front rack spin around the front wheel so the morning of the four day was spent looking for a new rack. In Lillie. We then set off at around 1pm for our lovely accommodation in the centre of town with Olivier. We made our way from Normandy through to Picardy and arrived at chateaux Susanne. From the moment we arrived we were treated like royalty from Mark's exquisite food to Clive's exceptional hosting.
in the morning we walking in the beautiful gardens of the chateaux, swam in the Somme river and I massaged both Clive and Mark on the couch-cycle. We then continued on our journey a little later than planned (3pm) and arrived in Senlis at 8:50, after a rather difficult cycle in the dark for the last hour or so.... We stay at a companille just out side the town.
In the morning we had breakfast and set off to do the last 55 mile of the trip to Paris where dad would be leaving me. Dad decided to stop to get some wine and pushed on to the Eiffel tower, after wait in g under the tower a few hours and occupying my time by attempting to clean my gears with far less water than really needed, dad arrived. We said our fair wells as he headed for a hotel near the gare de... And I went to a hostel in the south of town.
