Haha I just kept gallivanting around Paris afterwards, I spent 10 days in France and cumulatively slept maybe 30h total.
I hadn't done much riding that summer because of a broken ankle and actually re-fractured it mid-ride from vibration/stress while descending into Brest. The biggest trouble was that it was impossible to get any ice for it, but I found nice self-adhesive bandages to immobilize it the next day and was fine completing the ride.
Oh, that kind of complication certainly doesn't help. I hope that healed up properly, ankles are quite vulnerable. And sometimes what seems to have worked out well catches up with you later on.
It’s not really, ask all us audax riders. it’s surprising to think that 250km in a day was so life changing when I/we do 1200km in 3 days regularly and at a leisurely pace
