Where do I buy outdoor gear in France?
« on: May 09, 2010, 05:36:42 am »
Hi Guys,

The tour is going really well, left the UK and have been in France a couple of weeks now (I think).  The bikes are going really well although I did an early chain change yesterday just to save wear on the sprocket as I figure they are harder to find than a chain.

Anyway we would like to get a Trangia multi-fuel burner for our Trangia but dont know what type of shops sell them here in France.  Went to a Decathlon and that was just generic stuff.  If I cant find a Trangia then we might get an MSR Whisperlite but again where do we buy them.

We are heading to Tours then Orleans in the next few days so any tips of shop names etc would be really appreciated.

Many thanks
Gary
