• Classic Climbs of the Tour – Part 3 The AlpsAugust 4, 2025
  Another transfer morning! We have really covered some ground(and hotels) on this trip. Fortunately our guides have made this incredibly easy. Not only do you need to be a great rider/mechanic, but also a master of logistics. Chapeau to Gav and Ivo once again! After a few hour drive, we arrived at a campground nearContinue reading “Classic Climbs of the Tour – Part 3 The Alps”

It was nice to eat, relax and not ride very much 🙂 The campground I was in was very nice and right behind the dunes from the beach. However, the second afternoon the breeze dropped out andContinue reading “Ile de Re and Bordeaux”
