Fignon was the last great French hope, did not quite make it to Hinault like proportions, however. I think the French press was hoping that Voeckler would improve this year and give them someone to write about and a hope for the future. But he was not able to give them something to cheer about, and last year's effort seems to have been accidental rather than a spark of brilliance. The French folks, on the other hand, remain warm and considerate and will treat you kindly, on average, even if you are from the US. They will not hold the deeds of Lance, George, or any other individual against you. I rode through Aquitaine and the Midi and Haute Pyrenees in May, nothing but good things to say for the French people. They are even considerate on the road! - rick |

Greets, Derk I have been there about a dozen times and am going back the end of August for 2 months and can third it. |

Jasper MUCH more involved in my case as I have written about my 'adventures' in france at the hands of the 'locals' Not being going back there anytime soon. |
