Ditto...awesome report. A few days ago I asked my wife what we were doing in four years and told her about about PBP. Went to dinner with in-laws a bit later and they started asking about this crazy race in France that I was going to do. I may have committed myself...or I need to be

Thanks, all! And if you're interested at all in randonneuring or long-distance cycling (or currently ride crazy long brevets) -- PBP is the event to go that will validate all of the low points you'll hit / will ever hit during a ride. It really lived up to the hype. Such a magical event!

Jenny, Great Job! I went straight to the food pics. I was in Paris in April for a different endeavor (marathon!) and can appreciate how wonderful simple foods become after such a physical effort! On Thursday, August 27, 2015 at 12:03:43 PM UTC-4, Jenny Oh Hatfield wrote: PBP was
