The last time I’d been to Paris was over 10 years ago, when I was a single woman and explored just a sliver of the city on borrowed old step-through bicycle. I consider myself quite lucky that I was able to return this time with my husband and for a very special cycling event.
If you were a new randonneur and asked me what’s the most important thing I’ve personally learned in my nearly three years of partaking in this endurance sport, I would answer: it’s the company you keep.
Food was a major reason that I wanted to participate in Paris-Brest-Paris because I love food and France, of course, is a culinary paradise.
Paris-Brest-Paris is a veritable United Nations of cyclists. It’s our Olympics, our signature event where we proudly converge in solidarity of our international randonneurhood.
