    Coming towards the end of my trip. What an amazing experience. Mostly the weather has been with me. Mostly my satnav worked ok. My bike was perfect and my cameras worked well. I actually managed to ride to all of the landing beaches in one day, it was a bit rushed at times, but an amazing day never the less. Sainte-Mere-Eglise, Utah beach, pointe du Hock, Omaha beach.

    Thanks for the look around the D Day memorials, museum's and beaches. Some of those French towns look little changed since the war.
    Some incredible acts of bravery, and ultimate sacrifice on those beaches.

    Awesome tour! So great that they preserved all that equipment and history. I’d love to see it - from my GSA of course!

      @@the_mad_leprechaun It would be an honor to ride with you - plus, I would need someone to keep me on the right side of the road! Well, the right side for you, even if it’s the wrong side 😂😂 ATB, Gregg
