Just over 5 weeks away,
Before ii go out for a ride on my bike around the block,
Coventry to Dover. Then Calais pass Dunkirk into Belgium. Then ride down the length of Belgium, Luxenbourg, Germany, Switzerland. Then maybe into Italy before turning Right to cross France in Spain to cross the Pyrenees before turning left to cycle the length of Portugal.
" A poor man and a Bike "
Last year I cycled from Coventry to Santander. I had planed to cycle down to faro but as I got sick 40miles from Santander can called it a day.
Not sure what it was. Could have been the 6days of 35 to 40c heat and riding all day or the water I had to drink out of the river. ( I did filler it)
This was my first long tour and I did 1154 miles and learnt a lot. As I cycled down the west coast of France on that tour I have chose this route for this one. I know its going to be a hard ride in parts but that's what makes it worth it. I will be camping all the way.
I do have a face book page, A poor man and a bike
Thanks
Andy
