biking log book – places I have never seen #2
So far, my exercise plan is working. I am biking on my stationary bike more often since I began my virtual bike trip from Lusignan, France to Sanxay, France, a total distance of about 14 km.
I have discovered several tools in Google Earth to help me, including a ‘ruler’ under ‘tools’ – this gives me the approximate distance from place to place!

Hi. Now that’s a thought. I’ll find out on my next bike ride and let you know. I’ll watch for down-hills too. Jane
