Well, cycling to Portsmouth tomorrow. Ferry to Bilbao, arriving monday morning and then on to Gibraltar in the ensuing two weeks and if there's enough time, over to Morocco.
Diversion planned to bag the Pico de Veleta
My companion is a photographer, so lots of pics to follow.
Bike: my Thorn Tour with Rohloff - all prepped and ready to go!

Nice one Betty! That Pico looks fun!

One final day at work (to pay for it all).
Leaving now.

Best of luck!

It sounds superb, hope you enjoy! The pico looks a steady climb.

Make sure that photographer takes plenty of film or card space or whatever it is these days, we'll want to see pictures!

 

[Dayvo]

Good luck, Betty!

Have a great time!

 

[fossyant]

Have a good time.

My mate has just packed his job in, sold loads of his stuff, rented his house out, and is off round Africa for a couple of years on his new Thorn...may never come back !

 

[longers]

Cor, sounds good. Have a great time

Arch: I think you may know of my companion; tall, thin, takes lots of photos and lives in the Scottish Borders

 

[betty swollocks]

Bye everyone.
See you in a couple of weeks.
