| The Grand Tour 2000 route started in Quyon, on the Ottawa River, wending its way through the roads and lanes of Western Quebec... |

I ride on the Grand Tour because it offers a physical and mental challenge, the company transports my baggage, and I can camp out. It is somewhat lonely, as I travel on my own, meeting people as I go but that is part of the trip for me. The trip gives me a long-term goal at the beginning of the season, because with days of 70-150 km, it requires training beforehand. The 2002 trip is on my agenda for this summer. |

| Grand Tour 2001 was a particularly special trip through the Saguenay/Lac-St-Jean and Charlevoix regions. I'd always wanted to see that part of Quebec, and what better way than on a bike? |
