On a small back road we came across a 32 kilometer foot race that went on the country roads and through the forest trails. We past several runners who looked pretty tired and hot. As we rode on we came to one of those water / rest stops, like we have in the US. But, instead of water they were offering little pieces of bread spread with pate, pieces of cheese that looked like a brie, and small plastic cups with red wine! The person manning the station invited us to share, so we had a snack and went on our way. The wine was pretty good, too. The French, what can I say?
