srw goes on tour on tandem

[srw]

...with a new pump, thanks to the denizens of T & E. We're heading off tomorrow for Northern France, and thence via Belgium, the Atlantic and the Canal du Midi to Spain. If anyone can tell me what we've forgotten, I'd be grateful.

There's a parallel post in the charity rides forum, incidentally...

And there will be a blog going as in my sig, assuming we can find an internet in France.

Bumpity bump. We're over the worst of the Northern French hills (and believe me, they're pretty nasty - you don't get from sea level in the Seine valley to 250 metres or so without a heck of a climb) and on our way down towards the Loire.
