On February 8, 1945, the Allied offensive in Germany was being prepared. Stationed in the liberated territories, bombers were conducting operations in the east. This Thursday, a Douglas Boston returned from a raid on the German-Dutch border. While its mission accomplished, the medium fighter bomber was heading towards the Melun-Villaroche base, the flight turned into a tragedy. Above the Sénart forest, not a drop of kerosene was feeding the engine. Was it a fuel failure or a mechanical problem? When the Douglas Boston hit French soil, this detail was of little importance to the pilot: "First Lieutenant" George Hubert Steed Jr. died instantly. Contrary to what had long been said or thought, his gunner, Sergeant Karl Tranchina, survived. In a turret, the non-commissioned officer was in charge of defending the aircraft. Very quickly, American soldiers invaded the site, recovered the mobile machine gun, the ammunition and their brothers in arms. When the French gendarmes arrived on site, they found only a plane wreck and no explanation.

It's a technical and driving pleasure, in X-Country or enduro (even if there is almost no difference in altitude).

Superb alley of giant sequoias, quite unlikely in Ile-de-France.

Superb alley of giant sequoias planted in 1887. It is the 2nd longest alley of sequoias in Europe. With magnificent specimens over 4 m in diameter. Even if some wither due to parasites and lack of water.

Very nice path, quiet. Maybe a little complicated on a road tyre, but for all roads it's rolling

Small, clean, super bucolic tarmac path

cool

Superb bike path, a little bumpy in places, but in single mode and winding through the middle of the forest
