Hi, i haven't posted for a while but i'm back in the saddle and off on a tour again to France, Belgium and Holland. I set off on the 3rd June. I'm getting the train down to reading and then cycling to Portsmouth to get the overnight ferry to Le Havre. From Le Havre i'll be making my way to Bruges and then on to Holland and the West Frisian Islands before heading back to the Hook of Holland for the ferry back to Harwich. Been a while but looking forward to it.

Sounds great - have a good time Neil

Bon voyage Neil!

Might see on the road, Neil. I'm off on the ferry to Amsterdam 6 June and after a few days in town will start pedalling towards Copenhagen. It will be good to be back on the road

Thanks guys.

Have a good one Barry. Doubt i'll have got as far as Holland by the time you set off but you never know. Will you be going along the coastal route?

Have a great ride Neil - look forward to hearing about it when you get back

Thanks Dave.

Will go inland through Friesland as I have friends living there, but probably hit the coast north of Groningen

Had a nice couple of weeks but it was very windy. I've not completed my blog yet as i've been very lazy but i have uploaded a few pics if anyone is interested in having a look.
