This September 27th I will cycle across Spain by following an ancient Pilgrimage route starting at Bilbao, before heading south to briefly connect with the El Camino Santiago. I will then head to Salamanca, Merida, Savile, Gibraltar before getting the ferry to Tangiers, Morroco. A total distance of 800 miles in 3 weeks. I've a ways to go in organising this thing, like getting a bike, but its happening. So get a bike and get involved...or just follow me on this blog

Halfords...
...all thing bike, car and Chav accessary(including the paint for that oh so necessesary 'go fast stripe)couldn't even give my bike a bit of that low rider love, by not fixing the kinked rear wheel. What a wasted journey to pick up my newly serviced bike. I have added a few things mind. Like a saddle, resembling a livingroom arm chair, and a suspension seat post. The realisation of 7 hours a day in the saddle has promted necessary additions. New brake pads, cables, chain, and rear sprocket, lessens the nerves of taking a bike, originally from brick lane and stored at the bottom of the garden for 6 months, on a 800 mile trek across Spain!
