I have a dream (no name is not Martin) that I can participate in 2023, will be my first and likely only chance but with, (according to pbpresults.com), only 2 years 3 months 8 days to go I am starting to have fears that it's not going to happen or travel from this far flung part of the Oz world is going to be difficult and expensive, assuming our benevolent government will let me out and back in, they are currently saying borders will remain mostly closed till mid 2022, wanting to ride my bicycle in France may not be considered sufficient excuse!.
Will France want 6,000 cyclists from all over the world, will ACP be able to pull it off given given who knows what new requirements for feeding, controlling and sleeping all those people, talk about a super spreader event, I guess I just have to keep training and hope.
Additional friendly faces on the route will be most welcome if I make it there. Been riding the 2019 route on my smart trainer in 3-4 hour chunks, almost up to Ambrières-les-Vallées so will keep an eye out for you, can't really see what the fuss is, hasn't been too difficult so far.
PS got my first vaccine shot today, no side effects so far so that's positive.
