No mention of overnight accommodation. Presumably they'll be sleeping rough.

Did this last year because my uncle wanted to do something after he had hoped to get over an illness; good bunch of people, and some interesting pros as guides. You get to Paris for the Tour's arrival (bumped into Superted and co last year).

(a travelodge, a novotel and a nice French country hotel are your reward each evening)

Some... but nothing impossible (it is mostly flat). You'll enjoy it!

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
