It always amazes me how little spare time you have when you’re travelling. Surely not working should equate to lots of spare hours in the day. Maybe we are doing it wrong but our days are really busy. From the minute we wake up, we start – breaking camp, packing everything away, breakfast, making a […]
We have stopped for a couple of days in Angouleme and at last I have had time to put together the video of us picking up our bikes and flying to the UK 🙂
We arrived at Heathrow and anxiously waited for our luggage – our fingers were crossed that the $2 shop Chinese laundry bags tied up with washing line had held up to the job and that the bike boxes were in one piece and and not spewing bike parts. A big sigh of relief as they all […]

In this episode, we succeed in the ‘sister intercept’ mission and the Bromptons meet a couple of other bikes … they were a little bit intimidated but I don’t think it shows! Then they meet some trucks on the way to the ferry but again stand their […]
Here is the beginning of our most fabulous Netherlands experience …
After Toulouse, we took the train north and headed for the Ardennes with Belgium and the Netherlands to follow.
