Pyrenees D7…
…Cauterets and Pont d’Espagne. Lovely road surface and pretty scenery after Cauterets. Nice lunch before descending back to the lodge to pack up the bikes. A great end to a great trip with mr F. Loved it and will come back! ☀️⛰️🚴🏼🚴🏼

Pyrenees D6…
…Hautacam and Col de Tramassel. Rest day… or should that be purgatory on the day of rest? I can verify that Hautacam is brutal but a fun decent. Another day in the beautiful mountains with mr F plus the NYC crew for a brief fly by! ☀️⛰️🚴🏼🚴🏼👌🏼

WW Gospel…
…great ride away from the usual with cracking group of chaps. Nice stop at the Treehouse in Hay. Pinch puncture after hitting a metal object on the road but didn't let it dampen an otherwise splendid trip.

Spin around very busy Cotswolds…
…classic cars, tourists and cyclists. Flat white in M-I-M but abandoned gelato stop in CC due to long queue. Broadway slalom around car enthusiasts. Eventful. 🌤️🚴🏼🙂
