Time is ticking away now (as you can see from the newly added counter on the RHS of the full webpage - invisible if you're using a smartphone, sorry) and final preparations are underway. Both our bikes have been booked in for checks and services before the trip starts.
Rob and I have had a few days off over Easter week so are picking up the training again, although the weather continues to be unseasonally cold. Nevertheless, our base fitness is holding us in reasonably good stead.
Recent reports from south-west France reveal that the weather down there has also been poor. In fact, people who have holidayed recently in southern Europe seem to have had more cold and rain than they bargained for! The 10 day temperature forecasts for towns on our route appear a little more encouraging:
Santander 12 - 24C
Biarritz 13 - 24C
La Rochelle 10 - 16C
Vannes 8 - 13
Morlaix (nr Roscoff) 9 - 14
Thanks to all the donors who are swelling the funds of our nominated charities. It really means a lot to both of us and we are both determined that we will not let anyone down
