Day 0.... Paris

About 7 miles of cycling today, bit nervous this morning and again now!.. Official start tomorrow under the eiffel tower.. Pokey paris hotel room tonight and the difficulty of not drinking in paris on a saturday night.. Having a coke in a bar opposite the paris opera house, where questions have been asked before.. The last question asked ended in us getting hitched. So not the first time I've been nervous sat here.
