Default Tomorrow I shall mostly be...

...setting off for the Alps

Leaving about 10, meeeting Andy at Brampton Hut services (A1(M)/A14 at Huntingdon) then to Folkestone, overnight stop, ferry Friday morning, stopping over Friday night at Mussy-sur-Seine (about 300 miles from Calais, between Troyes and Dijon) and on to the Alps Saturday.

I did ask on here if anyone would like to come with but nobody wanted to come with - either the timing was wrong, it was too £££ or the wife would never agree - so I'm going with a bloke who organises trips - Bill Roughton, trades as Bike Tours UK - there are about 18 of us going, have been emailing so we're not strangers. An alarming number ride a Versys

Bought a spare CF card for my camera so I will bore you all with pics when I get back.

Woohoooooooooo Just a bit excited!!!!

Strangley I recognised that name, I walk past Bills house everyday whilst out for a walk on my lunch break from work.

Edit - Oh an Bourg St Mauric is an awsome place with some awsome whitewater canoeing.

Certainly is! The Col de L'Iseran is just up the road too, a great road on a bike. My kayaking buddy cooked his turbo on that!

Have a great time Ed. Just a tinsy bit jealous!
