Steady Pedals

So, it looks like a decision has been made, I have a destination and travel date. Forsaking all easy options, it will be a ferry to Santander in Spain and from there along and up and down the coast until France, where I will head vaguely northwards to one of the channel ports. Departure day from home will be 18th May, so we now stand at D-17. I’m teaming up with a fellow traveller who had already made travel plans and bookings for the journey. His previous riding partner is unable to make the trip, so he went looking for a replacement and found me !
