    Today's Ride

    Tonight's POETS CC ride. Everything was beautiful, including the excruciating climbs (the last one off road, averaging at 16.5%). The beer was cold and the blood has dried!

    That's my full-susser. 15mm of travel out front and about 50mm the other end. 😁

    Today's actual ride. Lovely again. That track is as steep as it looks... maybe steeper.

    Today's Ride

    Yesterday's ride. It's so nice to be home, riding the Castellano "soft machine" (and not carrying enough bloody luggage for a two week trip!).

    Finally home! I reckon it'd be easier to get your bike on that train than it would to get it on a German Intercity one!

    It was, but because of the headwind I still had to pedal. It's just not fair!!!

    Today's Ride

    Yesterday's ride. My last of this long trip. I parted with Fiona in Frankfurt, took the train to Trier and decided to ride from there to Sedan. I decided to hand navigation over to Google, suggesting cycle route and quiet roads. The results were interesting - it took me on a minutely wiggling...

    Today's Ride

    Yesterday's riding was spectacular. A chilly descent of the Oberalp, back down to Andermatt to meet two of my favourite cycling companions for breakfast and then the Furka Pass. It was only by chance that they happened to be in the area. A lovely start to the day! Then the nine hour attempt to...

    Today's Ride

    Been quite a few days of riding through the Jura in France and then across into Switzerland. My phone got soaked the other day and stopped working for a while. It seems to be recovering but now only charges very slowly, which is a stress. Initially, I planned to ride to Geneva/Smugsville (which...

    Today's Ride

    Thank you. Good going. My friend plotted the route. I did ask him yesterday if next time he was plotting a route he could avoid areas that have massive arrays of wind turbines. We seem to have gone past an awful lot and I'm guessing their location is not an accident. Tough day ahead. 50 miles of...

    Today's Ride

    It's been a grim slog from the north coast of France down (so far) to Dijon then to Geneva on Tuesday. Everything has been so much more tiring than anticipated due to an almighty headwind blowing almost continuously. Among the many highlights have been some sections of white roads near Troyes...
