One week to go.

The start date is nearly with me. I'm not sure whether I am over prepared in the sense that I have got all my stuff ready and there's virtually nothing left to do. The only issue I have is rather ludicrous because my brother, David, looked through my kit and suggested that instead of a hand towel I could cut back on weight by substituting It with two face flannels. He went on to explain a system of using one flannel for getting most of he water off and constantly wringing it out and then using the second flannel for the final dry off. I sounds just about feasible but I'm not sure how I'm going to dry my back with a flannel!! Anyway, I'll give it a go.

I'm still doing a bit of riding and he weather has perked up a bit despite a cool breeze. I look forward to a few more easy..ish rides before I go. I don't want to be worn out before I start, or even worse, pick up an injury. Anyway, I can't wait to get going.

  1. What's this about discussing my occassional personal hygine routine in public ??

    Still, your bike and some paniers have safely travelled back with us to France.

    Shame about the weather forecast! Currently looks like decent temperatures but also a lot of rain. Hope that the forecast either improves or is just wrong.
