1) Moved it to XLS format to allow edits and computations (XLSX version)
· Cumulative and point-to-point distances in miles have been added for the convenience of metrically challenged American riders.
· Minor white space changes to improve "fit" to the space available,
2) Reformatted it to fit in Gilles Berthoud Map Pocket, with larger font, (DOCX version)
3) Printed to PDF for same purpose, as the DOCX version may not print on some printers do to odd paper size.
· The word and PDF versions have the notes for the "cautions" listed in the PBP Dossier (page H) in red font -- see below
Attention :
Here are a few dangerous spots :

· TRAPPES (km 8.5), the road narrows from 6 to 3 metres.
· Crossroads in La Hutte (km 187.5 on the way out; 1042.5 on the way back): You cross the busy N 138 road
