How long to visit every bakery in France?

The 29,207 bakeries mapped in OpenStreetMap (about 34,000 in France), one baguette in each, by car: the real trip by road, worked out leg by leg.

Remember this

The visiting order is the shortest in driving time our algorithm found, and every leg is worked out on the real road network (OSRM). Fuel: E10 petrol at €2.14/L, 6.5 L/100 km; baguette at €1.03 (INSEE).
