it wasn’t easy but we made it all the way across France to Anacey Apparently half of London was also taking the train at the same time as me I just checked my bike before going through security and then entered into the zoo My review of highspeed rail I like it It’s very fast Train number one complete We’re in Paris now Could you take a video of me just my parents with all that so uh I was drenched after trying to carry this 60 lb little bike bag and then it was a TGV train to Anacey 4 hours This one stressed me out so I didn’t film much but it was just free-for-all on baggage traveling with a bike The moment of truth Did it all stay together did I crack my carbon frame so far so good I rode about 10 miles today That’s a stat for the nerds And nothing broke and nothing cracked I have to go back to Anacey It reminded me of summers in Madison on the lake But if you could add giant spectacular mountains all around Madison then that’s what Anacey looks like to me Hi everyone Chris Connley from New Zealand Chris helped me find a spot to stay tonight He’s living in his van paragliding around France That’s a wrap

I did Annecy last year. 26 mi/40km. I went the opposite direction which is better since you’ll go down the hill instead of up.
Is that pronunciation correct?
Looks like mom and dad are out having adventures too?
What precautions do you take to
Make sure your bike is safe ?
Nothing broke is a win. Thanks for the video and take care.
Don’t pronounce the e in Annecy.
Wow you really bounce around.
If you pronounce it quickly you will nail it 😂😂… Annecy

Have you ever been to amnacon falls in northwestern wisconsin?
What of your travels in door county?
It would seem to me to be the best thing for you to do a tour of wisconsin for all the people around the world.
I don't think they take the chance to know us well enough
Those Nutella biscuits slap.
Switching trains in Paris is usually a nightmare
Looks like a great trip. What are those on your helmet straps? Cat ears to keep the wind noise down? Do they help? Thanks! Have a great time! 👍🏼😎👍🏼
Kiwis pop up everywhere. Great people from a beautiful country (but don’t let them know I’m an Aussie). Really enjoy your videos mate.
