We plan on having lunch somewhere in Paris and then head over to the Eifel Tower for some photos and maybe over to the cemetary before heading back to the metromess.

I am still looking for a good place to eat there on Sunday.

Normally I would be all over this ride but I think those burgers must have been "funny" that we had at that gas station last Saturday - lol

I ended up having my gall bladder taken out Monday afternoon so I can't ride this weekend.  I'm bummed as this should be a nice ride.  Hopefully next time.

VTXCHAD,

Checking my route, we will miss going thru Commerce but that does sound like a nice day in a small town.

Not that this is revelant to your ride to Paris this weekend, but I'll be up there in about two weeks on my return from my trip to Ark.  Post what there is to do up there.  :bikerider: have a safe ride.
