Bergau to Erding
81 miles, so a day, like the song, to push it along. Rollin' rollin' rollin' we kept our doggies rollin'. Two stops agreed at 30 and 60 miles, and with our breakfast picnics packed away, the pleasure of hunger abated gave us smiles. Our legs less tired now took us…

Day 8 Esslingen to Burgau
Days on the bike as you travel abroad give you ups and downs in the head and the legs. The miles tick by and the scenery changes. that brings both smiles but also grimaces. The road rears up your head goes down, your legs strain around but you win more…

Day 7 Roppenheim to Esslingen
A dry day yet again, but then a dire day of stops and starts. Big towns, cities, and traffic clutter did divert our rhythm and made us mutter. "50 miles to go and it seems so slow; look another cycle path, the way they forgot to show". This is the…

Day 6 Lagarde to Roppenheim
Leaving our hosts behind, burnt baguette for breakfast, a bizarre stay, so I must you remind with a picture of our host, with a figure to surely boast. Onwards through rural France spotting birds of prey on air currents do they dance and one in a field on its prey…

Day 5 Ligny en Barries to Lagarde 78 miles
A delightful stay in a stunning abode and a 6 mile climb that was à la mode. A gravelly track held us back, then stunning countryside and a huge descent gave riding pleasure of which there was no lack. A coffee break, a river view, a breath before the road…

Day 4# Chalons en Champagne to Ligny en Barrois
Two lady septuagenarians waved us away cheerfully from their first floor window, and we were soon on our way away and cycling on, heading South East. Yesterday became today in reverse, and what started flat became hilly at the finish. Distance was shorter, but the sun was hotter and shelter…

Day 3 Villers Cotteret to Chalons en Champagne
Dew soaked cobwebs sparklng in the morni ng mist soaked grass. Climbing and descending. Tiny roads, small villages, and big open countryside. Sunshine and warm weather quickly shone through. Vineyards, lush with red grapes, heralded our arrival into the rolling champagne region. Prosperous villages and large country houses. The terrain…

Forges les Eaux to Villers Cotterets
Cool rain spots start becoming warm and sunny at last. Peeling off layers to keep cool, cycle paths soon becoming D roads too. Finding eateries was a trial but a crêpes à miel was sufficint a meal. It was just fuel. Later. baguette avec cheese et tomate was enogh to…

Day #2 Dieppe to Forge les Eaux
Into deepest Dieppe. Avoiding the long queues, awaiting the swing bridge to swing, and soon onto perfectly surfaced cycle paths née the old railway line. A fallen tree blocked the path. Pas probleme. Onwards.
A cheery family group, trimming an enormous hedge waved and called out to their friend ambling…

Day 1#a UK to Valdobbiadene. Walberton to Newhaven Ferry
Cold very dark moonless start at 03.30. Joy of empty roads and uninterrupted pace through the towns, traffic lights and railway crossings.
Dark night, dark clothes. Dark dog. Just caught sight of a near miss as the canine and owner were briefly illuminated in my lights as I passed. Brighton…
