I have waved goodbye to my Marin bike. Not for long though. My brother has taken it with him to France in the back of his car. It's an awful lot easier than me taking it in a cardboard box onto an aeroplane. Fortunately I have other bikes I can continue to ride prior to me going on the trip. I have managed to keep getting out for rides despite the bitter cold and the strong winds. I hope that its not going to be this cold when I set off but looking at the French weather it looks very cold right across the north half of the country. I may have to take the thick winter gloves after all!
It's getting very close now, less than 2 weeks before I go. Seeing that I don't have to take my bike I have allowed myself the luxury of travelling first class on the train to the airport. I will look very strange in my casual cycling gear sitting amongst suited business men. I hope I get a complimentary breakfast.
