Welcome to the beast !

    Journey so marked us that on the way back, Christine and I think the same thing : how to pursue journey in France ?

    The solution was rather simple, the element which discovered to us the U.S.A. names Harley-Davidson, and it is without regret that we exchanged our BMW for new Harley, and naturally Heritage Softail Classic

Just a click, and discover the Beast...

    Today, no regrets, may be that, in France, we have much more short bends, so I rub regularly. There more changes between the sports behaviour of R1100 RT and the cool one of Harley.

Finally an intercom deserving of this name!

    Taken out the sophisticated intercoms and so appealing to the electronics, no safety, and so hello breakdowns inherent to these systems: breakdown of batteries, unpleasant interferences... It was without counting without the professionalism of French Mr. Pierre Trotoux who invents " the cheesewire of intercoms " (extait of an article of a french magazine PARIS MATCH). An original and very effective product : we tested it yesterday at 140km / hour. This system is going with us during our journey. If TUYAUCOM ® you interresse or if you look for the retailer the most close to you, go on the web site www.astumania.com.

The discount is clear : - 46 days before the departure.

    After multiple problems to find BMW's rent in the USA (on the outward journey Chicago / Los Angeles), we'll ride on Harley-Davidson. So to ride Route 66 much whether it is Harley made in U.S.A. rather that a Japanese or a German bike. For the footnotes of history, the Harley factory is in 146 km in the North of Chicago, more exactly in Milwaukee in Wisconsin. Departure so of Roissy on April 19 at 11. 40 AM, stopover in Amsterdam (2 hours) and arrival to Chicago the same day to O Hare International at about 15. 50 PM.

A class of English (European Class) becomes our relay internet " Made in the USA ".

    Running in June, while I looked for the documentation on the Route 66, a person approached me about the "Journey", and while discussing, I exposed her my project. Himself having circulated to meet Indians, Éric Ricart, English professor, was very interested and we'll proper to meet from school. By putting in flat what we could put in common, the idea to participate the class on the project became an evidence. On Saturday , October 8, 1999, I am going to Georges Brassens school on the municipality of Esvres ( 37 ). I am welcomed by Jeff Gerbier, sport professor interested in my project, then, received by madam Of Asençao, Main clause of the school, I explain the program of the journey and the opportunity of this " virtual ballad " for the pupils of Éric. And then, it is meeting with the class of 3-rd European where current passes well . Having exposed the bases of the project and the presentation of the website, we agree tasks to share. Of the research work in the translation of my e-mail and the alignment of the website in English, a little job which will have nothing of virtual!!!

Saint-Avertin (50 minutes from Paris by T.G.V.)
A little city in the heart of the Loire Valley

    A city of 14280 inhabitants in the heart of the castles of the Loire. Situated near Tours, we take advantage of the campaign and the advantages of the city. Our common leisure activities are concerned the cinema, the motorcycle, the journeys, the nature generally. For my part, I like the BD, the music (rather Rock), the art under all its forms including numeric(digital), a computer with the apple, the photo. In 10 minutes of the centre of Tours, 5 minutes of Méga Ciné with a lot of rooms, 50 minutes from Paris by T.G.V. We are royal in Saint avenue '.
