This is one of the coolest ventures I can ever hope to follow.
Your writing is fantastic and the photos are nothing short of amazing.
So excited for the two of you!
Happy trails and know we’ll be following you all the way (no, not like back in Thailand!).

And still the wheels keep turning. So glad to see it is accompanied by some lovely French Food and Wines.Just as well you are cycling, as regular 4-course lunches would soon spread the waistline! May your adventure continue to delight you both.

Not sure if we’re cycling in order to be able to eat four-course lunches, or eating four-course lunches in order to be able to continue cycling… enjoying both, in any case!

Hello Charlotte and Richard:
Jennifer and I are the two Canadians that met up with you on a short Nov.16, 2009 ferry ride from Royan as you were heading south for Bordeaux, Fr. We have often thought about your adventures and wonder where you are now?
Best wishes,
Ron Erickson.
