Day 3-7: Sevenoaks>Offemont
Adding England to the list of countries I’ll pass through, if it goes to plan, there’s a possible 14 up for grabs:
Wales
England
France
Germany
Switzerland
Lichtenstein
Austria
Italy
Slovenia
Croatia
Montenegro
Bosnia
Albania
Greece
At this stage. I’m confident about 3. Only because I’ve done them!
Sevenoaks, England, 19 April 170 miles completed
After applying self-physio, my emergency dosage of codeine and messing around with both my cleat and saddle for around an hour and 4 attempts, I was on the flattest and most traffic free route I could think of and for the first time, listening to music for the first time this trip, I expected the A25 to be rammed, having received several warnings from P & O and the likely congestion at the port. As it happened, either I plotted brilliantly or more than the normal number of people who’d planned a trip to France had stayed away because of the Brexit possibility. I owned the road, and just as I couldn’t feel any more pleased with myself as the sun warmed the road in front of me, and Spotify presented me with Matt Monro “On day’s like these” a motorbiker sped past me doing a wheelie! Perfect timing 😊
Summitting the biggest climb of the day at Wye, the cross England achievement came to me, helping me believe that Athens may be achievable. Feeling quite emotional, I ate 3 shot blocks and marvelled at the sheep on the crest of the hill with the Kent vista behind them.
I had little clue where I was until I rode past the Battle of Britain Museum on Aerodrome Road and onto Spitfire Lane, finally descending into Dover after a few finally hilly miles, past the queuing lorries and cars, straight into the port. Stage 1 complete.
Cycling across a continent from home has so many advantages than getting on a plane and doing it from somewhere else: you can be flexible about when you start and if you’re lucky, you might have company for a few days.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Saint-Quentin, France, 20 April, 362 miles completed
This stage was longer, windy, hillier than expected, but fantastic in being so exciting for the first mainland European stage of the trip. Whilst blogging time was curtailed, the real highlight of the day was making it to Intermarche just in time to buy dinner. Dinner consisted of chicken sausages, strawberries and orange yoghurt eaten using a finger as a spoon on the sunny bank of the supermarket car park, washed down with a bottle of beer topped up with some lemonade. Other than the hotel room, this is as much as I saw of St-Quentin. But it is one of the highlights so far for the trip 😃
Chalons-en-Champagne, 21 April, 458 miles completed
As I’m writing from a two day old memory now, I recall villages that seemed to resemble a film set of Les Miserables, headwind, and I’ve lost a pair of knickers somewhere along the way...the supermarket shopping list gets longer...Reims is a beauty, but something inside me stops me from entering religious buildings unless it’s absolutely necessary. I know I’m going to hell, so I guess that has something to do with it. But Reims Cathedrale is beautiful feom the outside and I felt a tinge of sadness thinking about Notre Dame. Only after I’d visited did Dad say “did you go inside and see the Rose Window?” So, this is what you must do if you go. I settle for Rose Champage as my Di2 Battery recharged.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
It was a day for cathedrals, as Chalons for which I knew nothing about, provided its own night show with the city’s towering and magnificent architecture. Is it something to do with getting older that these buildings seem to grow in fascination?
Chaumont, 22 April, 552 miles completed
No pictures here, but Chaumont has an amazing canal with a cycle path, marked and paved, that runs for many miles! A lovely surprise.
Offemont, France, 23 April, 652 miles completed (about quarter of way to Athens)
I started writing this on Saturday and decided rapidly to put it on hold as I had gained the esteemed company of Dave. Today, day 7, Dave took his scooter and continued his own adventure. Waking up to this fact and the first clouds I’d seen since before I left home, the day started a little darker and my bag felt a little heavier; my tyres felt a little flatter and I noticed the dirt on my chain.
in January, Dave had decided that he’d like to come along for some of the adventure. From then, it had been an on/off plan, but the crossing tickets were purchased.He bought a scooter and after much dithering, to his word, he appeared at Dover, fearless despite two previous vehicle collisions which led to two separate fractures of his coccyx and no scooter for three years. I didn’t invite him but I did send him an image of a planned route without introduction. I expected the reaction of “nutter” but instead he delivered a “wow!” and “can I come along for a bit?” For the few days he was here, Dave was to me like Ray Mears was to Ffyona Campbell (sadly, not many people know who is is or what she achieved but she inspired me in my teenage years and despite a mistake she made, she achieved so much). Why anyone would want to buy a scooter and meet me at Dover to track a stinky, self-centred cyclist for 3 days is a mystery but one I was very grateful for. Dave is a salty dog, a sailor with 15 years in the RNLI. He’d appear at various points on the route, most memorably on the toughest day, 3 hours in with the best pain au raisin I’ve ever tasted. There was no telling where he’d pop out, offering Percy Pigs which on more than one occasion I rode straight past. By the time he left this morning, Percy Pigs had melted to become one large pink sausage, which in a low moment today, was devoured like I’d never experienced sweet stuff before.

No Joke! Comedian Martin Lawrence’s Ranch Slays ’Em as the Week’s Most Popular Home
realtor.com
’’Dammmmmmmn! When we totaled up the numbers, Martin Lawrence‘s 116-acre Virginia ranch ranked as the most popular home on realtor.com® this week. Now available for $8.5 million, the funnyman’s massive vacation home features a two-lane bowling alley and a movie theater.
Speaking of movies, this week’s runner-up played a part in the film “Nights in Rodanthe” and is on the market for $1.25 million. The current owners not only loved the movie and worked to recreate the home’s cinematic look, but rescued the structure from flooding by moving it to higher ground. The 83,000-pound home was trucked down the highway to a spot about 2,500 feet away from its original location.
Other popular properties this week include a wild Harry Potter-themed house in Minnesota, a cool apartment for rent in an old Ohio movie theater, and the former Connecticut home of President President Trump and his former wife, Ivana, now on the market for $45 million.
We ask you to put politics aside for a moment and enjoy all of this week’s most popular homes…
10. 208 Nalley St, Easley, SC
Price: $119,900 Why it’s here: Welcome to the doll house! This two-bedroom cottage is cute inside and out. The freshly renovated space includes a kitchen with farmhouse sink and butcher-block counters, updated floors, a deck off the kitchen, as well as a fenced-in yard. The listing went fast—it’s already found a buyer after less than two weeks on the market.
Easley, SC
realtor.com
———
9. 21 Vista Dr, Greenwich, CT
Price: $45 million Why it’s here: Just a humble waterfront country home, once owned by Donald Trump and his first wife, Ivana. The couple purchased the stately residence in 1982. Ivana kept the six-acre spread after the divorce, which now includes tennis courts, an indoor pool, putting green, and staff apartments. The former Mrs. Trump sold it to the current owners in 1998—it’s now the most expensive listing in the Nutmeg State.
Greenwich, CT

8. 3138 N Cambridge Ave, Milwaukee, WI 
Price: $199,900 Why it’s here: Land ho! Live on a boat without ever touching the water in this boat-shaped home. We covered this two-bedroom house last year, when it was priced at $389,000. The nautical-themed house has now floated back onto the market with a significant price cut.
Milwaukee, WI

7. 535 E Roseville Rd, Lancaster, PA
Price: $308,000 Why it’s here: Built in 1941, this house is a pristine, Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired gem featuring details including built-in shelving, an open floor plan, and loads of natural light. The multitiered building, made of stone, wood, and glass, has four bedrooms, a screened-in porch, and a separate artist studio on one acre of land. 
Lancaster, PA

6. 829 E 185th St Apt 3, Cleveland, OH
Price: $635/mo Why it’s here: Now playing? The coolest rental in Cleveland! Once a movie theater, this building from the 1920s was abandoned in the 1990s and faced demolition. Instead, it was scooped up by the nonprofit Neighborhood Development Corporation and renovated. Now, the building is a multiuse space with five apartments above the auditorium.
This newly renovated unit features original hardwood floors, new casement windows, renovated kitchen and bath, plus two bedrooms. Residents enjoy on-site laundry and proximity to the revitalized neighborhood’s restaurant scene, Waterloo arts district, and bike trails. Although interest has been of blockbuster proportions, income limits have been imposed to keep the apartments reserved for affordable housing. 
“There are so many people who have such good memories tied to the theatre,” says listing agent Neris Limas, with the Klimas Group. “I think it was exciting for people to see a new life being breathed into the space.” 
Cleveland, OH

5. 10979 Chalon Rd, Los Angeles
Price: $90 million Why it’s here: The web just can’t get enough of this over-the-top megamansion. Even with a $10 million price cut, it’s still one of the most expensive homes in the L.A. metro. The luxe offerings of the 31,000-square-foot newly built estate include a lavish designer kitchen, 5,600-square-foot master suite including spa, five bars, and a two-lane bowling alley.
Los Angeles

4. 247 10th Ave S, Minneapolis, MN
Price: $2,995,000 Why it’s here: OK, muggles of Minneapolis: Here’s your chance to move into Hogwarts. Tucked away in downtown Minneapolis and steps from the U.S. Bank Stadium sits a stone-clad estate built in 1911. The property—which once served as a storefront for a blacksmith—was purchased by musician and restaurateur Jeff Arundel in 2002.
Arundel then spent years creating the fanciful residence. Hidden behind a gated courtyard and garden, the urban castle offers three beds, a rooftop terrace with skyline views, and details like a steel staircase, stone fireplaces, and exposed brick walls.
Minneapolis, MN
realtor.com
———
3. 450 W Grixdale, Detroit, MI 
Price: $550,000 Why it’s here: The internet is still clicking on this eye-popping estate crammed with memorabilia. Still available for a serious collector, the purchase price includes everything within, including a white player piano, vintage cars, statuary, and fountains. Any takers?
Detroit, MI
realtor.com
———
2. 23289 Beacon Rd E, Rodanthe, NC
Price: $1.25 million Why it’s here: Nicholas Sparks fans unite! This oceanfront vacation home had a starring role in the movie “Nights in Rodanthe,” starring Richard Gere and Diane Lane, based on the best-selling novel of the same name.
“It’s an icon,” says listing agent Frank A. Jakob. “It’s a movie house. I expect a bidding war.” The waterfront property was almost lost due to flooding from erosion about a decade ago. It was saved by the current owners, fans of the movie, who bought it in 2010 and moved the structure to a lot about 2,500 feet away from its original location. The owners then painstakingly recreated the interiors to match the look of the fictional bed-and-breakfast in the movie.
Although the blue-shuttered, six-bedroom building is a single-family residence in real life, and not an inn, as portrayed in the movie, it could bring in about $130,000 of income a year as a rental property, the agent notes.
Rodanthe, NC
realtor.com
———
1. 19290 Telegraph Springs Rd, Purcellville, VA
Price: $8,500,000 Why it’s here: This isn’t your “Big Momma’s House.” Comedian Martin Lawrence’s 116-acre ranch has caused a frenzy of interest on the Internet. Completely renovated in 2004, the 22,538-square-foot home has plenty of deluxe features, including a bowling alley, indoor pool and spa, a sport court, workout room, and a home theater.

Cowboy Bill Chaloner crossed the mud to start the 4-lane Long X bridge
Cowboy Bill Chaloner crossed the mud to start the 4-lane Long X bridge
A cowboy gets travelers across the Little Missouri River
Lemme tell ya a story I uncovered this week.  It’s about Bill Chaloner, the man who could be called the grandfather of the Long X Bridge, the National Parks and the highway through the Badlands.
It seems like Bill Chaloner would tackle just about anything. 
That includes horse thieves, search and rescue efforts, and road construction.

Mystery Mannequin Mansion in Texas Tops the Week’s Most Popular Homes
realtor.com
This week’s most popular homes on realtor.com® offer up some true surprises once you peer inside them.
For starters, the top home was shared all over the web thanks to some of the oddest decor choices we’ve ever seen.
From the outside, the Richmond, TX, residence is conventional enough. Indoors, there’s a jarring jumble of artwork, tchotchkes, and … mannequins. Yes, the life-size dolls are visible everywhere, hanging from the ceiling, greeting you in the hallway, sitting at the kitchen island, and even mowing the lawn. Shudder. The home, owned by an artist who lives among her projects, is available for $1,275,000.
This week’s runner-up is a familiar face: The Palazzo di Amore in Beverly Hills, CA, was a staple of our weekly countdown a couple of years ago, when it was priced at $195 million. Now up for sale at a relatively bargain-basement price of $129 million, it’s raising its regal head yet again.
But we truly loved our fourth-place finisher, a home in Omaha, NE, that includes a secret Batman-themed pole right out of the 1960s TV show. Slide down to the Batcave featuring a bar, TV, and Batman decor—all for only $575,000. Ka-pow!
We’re not equipped with a bat pole, but you can simply slide your cursor down the page for the full list of this week’s most popular properties.
10. 3645 Lawrenceville Rd, Corinth, KY
Price: $299,900 Why it’s here: A recent $15,000 price cut did the trick for this 48-acre horse farm. Now in pending status, the picturesque property comes with an updated four-bedroom home, nine-stall barn, and newly refurbished workshop.

9. 10979 Chalon Rd, Los Angeles, CA
Price: $100 million Why it’s here: Built on spec, this massive Bel Air mansion is as spectacular as it is expensive. It was last week’s priciest new listing, and has everything a buyer needs for luxe living: 12 bedroom suites, multiple decks, five bars, a two-lane bowling alley, theater, wine cellar, and even a putting green. In the understatement of the year, listing agent Arline Bolin told us, “It is a special house.”

4. 5744 S 239th St, Omaha, NE
Price: $575,000 Why it’s here: Caped Crusader fans, this one’s for you! This lovely suburban home with three bedrooms comes with a surprise: a Batman-themed pole behind a secret bookshelf leads to a Batcave—aka man cave—complete with bat signals, a bar, and TV.
Omaha, NE

3. 454 Demuth Ln, Benton, AR
Price: $349,000 Why it’s here: Perfect for a growing family, this four-bedroom home comes with a modern kitchen with granite counters and stainless-steel appliances. The property comes with 3 acres of land close to the river, and includes a 700-square-foot apartment with kitchenette and full bath above a workshop.
Benton, AR

2. 9505 Lania Lane, Beverly Hills, CA 
Price: $129 million Why it’s here: The Palazzo di Amore came back on the market this spring with its price slashed by an eye-popping $66 million and still made our most expensive listing at the time. While not exactly a steal, the glorious property is capturing interest and certainly offers a lot for its money.
“Being on 25 acres, you won’t find this anywhere in the city,” says listing agent Stacy Gottula.
Beverly Hills, CA

1. 4302 Colony West Dr, Richmond, TX
Price: $1,275,000 Why it’s here: This artist’s home has set the web aflame. It’s no wonder! The rooms are stuffed from floor to ceiling with art, paintings, and collectibles. And shockingly, there are mannequins everywhere, walking on the ceiling, watching TV, and standing in the hallway.
“It’s just weird,” says David Thelen, who’s with Keller Williams Premier Realty, who posted the odd listing on his own website but is not affiliated with the home. While the clutter would drive a home stager to drink, the artwork will disappear when the owner sells the house.

The Martin Luther King Jr. National Historic Site consists of several buildings including Martin Luther King Jr.’s boyhood home and the original Ebenezer Baptist Church, the church where King was baptized and both his father Martin Luther King Sr., and he were pastors. These places, critical to the interpretation of the life of Martin Luther King Jr. and his legacy as a leader of the American Civil Rights Movement, were included in the National Historic Site when it was established on October 10, 1980.

In total, the buildings included in the site make up 35 acres (0.14 km²). The visitor center contains a museum that chronicles the American Civil Rights Movement and the path of Martin Luther King Jr. An 1894 firehouse (Fire Station No. 6) served the Sweet Auburn community until 1991, and now contains a gift shop and an exhibit on desegregation in the Atlanta Fire Department. The “I Have a Dream” International World Peace Rose Garden, and a memorial tribute to Mohandas K. Gandhi are part of the site, as is the “International Civil Rights Walk of Fame” which commemorates some of the courageous pioneers who worked for social justice.

Annual events celebrating Martin Luther King Jr. Day in January typically draw large crowds. Speakers have included Presidents of the United States, national and local politicians, and civil rights leaders. Remembrances are also held during Black History Month (February), and on the anniversary of King’s April 4, 1968, assassination in Memphis, Tennessee.
Established in 1968 by Mrs. Coretta Scott King, The Martin Luther King, Jr. Center for Nonviolent Social Change (“The King Center”) has been a global destination, resource center and community institution for over a quarter century. Nearly a million people each year make pilgrimage to the National Historic Site to learn, be inspired and pay their respects to Dr. King’s legacy. Both a traditional memorial and programmatic nonprofit, the King Center was envisioned by its founder to be “no dead monument, but a living memorial filled with all the vitality that was his, a center of human endeavor, committed to the causes for which he lived and died.” – See more at: http://www.thekingcenter.org/about-king-center
