Well there’s less than a month to go and preparations and training have been ramping up these last few weeks.

Chris has been over to France ostensibly to watch Le Tour de France but was able to take in a couple of the mountain passes to up his fitness. Nick has had enough of the dire weather over the last month and disappeared off to Spain for some warm weather training and we are not sure when he’s back. I’ve taken a pause in my work contract and finished on Monday to get some last minute rides in. So the cyclists are nearly there.

Nigel promises that Broomey the camper is fit and rating to go and Monica has promised her famous apple & beetroot salad as well as finding the best pastries across Europe and continuing to try to visit every Lidl’s en route.

Our tour jerseys arrived today courtesy of Kalas whose outfits can be seen on Team GB at the cycling world Champs this week. So if it’s good enough for the pros….

As ever Cadence ( previously Everndens) at Paddock Wood are providing us with a big box of spares which we hopefully won’t need.

Next post will hopefully be at the end of the month as the adventure begins.
