Jim & I during our last bit of cycling in Spain

I'm sure these panniers seemed bigger when I packed them a month ago!!

Managed to pack the front pair, which are now full. Just the rear two and the bar bag to go! The "To Do" list hasn't shrunk very much, in spite of my doing some of them. Let's just hope I don't think of anything more that needs doing!!

Cycling shoes and overshoes have both been waterproofed, and I have to say that Nikwax Tent & Gear has done a fantastic job - it's like water off a duck's back. Let's hope rain has the same effect as a running tap on them!

Travel arrangements have been made and we'll be throwing the bikes into the car about 7pm tomorrow for the journey to Fleet.

Why oh why did I ever suggest it?!! Conversation had dried up so I just blurted it out!! Wouldn't it be fun to cycle to the apartment? "So what?", I hear you say. But home is Paddock Wood in Kent, and the aforementioned apartment is in Altea on the Costa Blanca in Spain. That throw-away comment early in 2010 was picked up on by my brother-in-law - Jim - and so it is that on Saturday 14 May 2011 we will set out to ride the 1,000+ miles. Should be a stroll in the park.......... full info
