Where you say "just leave your house in the morning..." really drives home the significance of what Lachlan's Alt Tour particularly means for French people. Wanna ride the whole darn route just like your favorite pros? Get your bike up to snuff, just leave your house, grab some snacks... you can refill and do laundry on the way!

More broadly, without all the resources, cars, gas, etc of a full "race" or event, you can still have meaningful experiences. That lesson seems like a great takeaway from the whole thing.
