Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

      Obviously you meant to ask if it's the "best city outside of Paris" I'm sure. But that may be Bordeaux. Or Lyon.https://twitter.com/TheLocalFrance/status/720248547740880896 …

      What do you think? Is Clermont-Ferrand really the top city in France? http://www.thelocal.fr/20160413/15-reasons-clermont-ferrand-is-the-best-place-in-france … @ClermontFd pic.twitter.com/9WlTefcZfU

      @ChrisInParis Never been to either Lyon or Bordeaux (tho've been close to both). Are they really that nice?

      @emptywheel Lyon is nice & has a good food reputation, but a bit heavy for me. Smaller towns (almost everywhere) are more enjoyable though.

      @ChrisInParis But will keep in mind the cycling thing. I think they next phase of my life will feature a lot of cycling vacations.

      @emptywheel That varies a lot here, depending on what you like. Dordogne can be good but hilly. Burgundy is great (thru vineyards) but hilly

      @ChrisInParis Burgundy was my first choice, bc I'm a bigger Burgundy fan than a Bordeaux fan, and I keep threatening to bring spouse there.

      @emptywheel And lots to visit all around in that region. I would highly recommend & vineyard cycling route is mostly easy enough.

          @emptywheel Once I started, I became addicted. My 75 year old friend puts me to shame, cycles everywhere & knows routes all over France.

          @ChrisInParis After 15 yrs, spouse & I went on 1st ride together, both riding 20 yo bikes, few years back. Back still limits my distances

          @emptywheel If you find a decent local bike shop, they can also help minimize back issues. A slight change of 1cm can have an impact.
