I wonder if anyone whilst passing by the charity cycling area for the French Heart Foundation managed to get any piccys or clips.

I was there on Sat and Sun and was particularly impressed with my Sunday performance of 82KM in 1 hour 48mins.

You will be pleased to hear that your Cultural attaché kept the British end up by doing the most amount of km's in the shortest space of time.

I did not make it to Le Mans this year so no pictures obviously - however as a keen cyclist I must say that 82km in that time frame is mighty impressive smile

I assume it was pretty flat to cover that amount of ground..

To Be fair i should have pointed out that we were on Look bikes and turbo trainers. The best i got to was 58kph. I should also probably point out that i have been in training for the last four months for the London to Paris cycle ride next week.

You were riding on Look bikes on the road? or were the Look bikes mounted in the turbo trainers? I have a feeling it was the latter smile

Actually riding on the road is a fair bit harder due to wind/gradients etc..

Either way a top effort.
