• Day 3 Finding Bikes

    September 3, 2024 in France ⋅ ☁️ 21 °C

    First stop was to wander down to the TBM office to try to cancel the 140 Euros. Again the queue was horrendous, but a young guy came down the line and helped us out.

    Seems this office was only for those buying passes, so I had to file a claim on line. So glad he helped me with that. Now we just have to wait and see. . . . .

    Next stop was to find real bikes - with no hassle. The tourist office gave us several suggestions and we chose Pierre Qui Roule. Not only was it situated in Place Gambetta, with a lot of charm, but the lovely lady there was sweet and helpful. We’ve now lined up 2 new, good bikes for tomorrow - Wed & Thursday. Happiness is . . . .
