Blog #6 France vs Karori

By Karl Woolcott, Adventure Travel

 

The Tour de France is over for another year.

 

I like living in Karori, however, I can’t wait to get back to France. And, it’s only been a couple of days.

 

You need to cycle in France to appreciate exactly what I mean.

 

It’s the whole package.... the roads, the drivers, the scenery, the race that stops a nation, the food and wine, Julian Dean taking it to those Aussies, not being in Wellington in July...... I could go on and on.  I won’t as it will only get boring.

 

Rather than rattle on about how good the Tour de France is, I thought I’d share some of my favourite photos.
