I am sure I have asked you this before...but living in Nantes, there must be a boat-load of used Gitanes around, right?

i'll tell you more about that later in march(after the next Troc'athlon.....the main sport supermarket sells with no fee its customers obsolete stuff)...

and as i may have already said...many more low to mid-range bikes than stuff worth be seen here.

but did i mention that i met a collector who got a road "delta" new from the factory(and free of course

) funny thing is that he was said to be forbidden to sell it or to RIDE it

.
i'll manage to take my camera when i'll get to visit his collection.

I just showed my wife your message...and my wife asked me if I had told you that Nantes was our #1 target destination in France. My wife really wants to do a home exchange, so that we can take the kids to the Jules Verne museum. As for me...I just nod and say "great", knowing full well that the main reason I want to go is to be close to Machecoul, and the u-boat pens in La Rochelle.....

Hi Stephan,

great idea to settle down in Nantes for a vacation.
Ocean is close for your girls,Yffiniac is a tad more than 2hours away,machecoul of course,Paris is 2 hours by train(but at a cost for a family)

Please ask for any help;you're welcome.
Did you know than arrivals in TDF's stages in Nantes were held at the "boulevard des Am?ricains"...BTW two blocks from home

The web page for Gitane in Australia has been down for some time now. I wonder if they have packed it in?
