    Heading off to the Chunnel at the end of may, to Calais, then a night In Strasbourg, then onto Verona for 3 nights. Total journey 750 miles over 2 days... It's doable... Hehe.

    "For me, getting away from it is the best bit of biking"

    I'll second that.

    Jimbo, if you're doing Andorra, have you included the N260, Sort to La Seu d'Urgell. If you haven't, I can highly recommend it, it's south of Andorra, and is biking heaven. I'm probably going to do it again in 2012, just planning it at the moment, but if so will be taking ferry to Santander to cut out a lot of motorway and save on tyres lol.

    Is that the road that follows the Spanish / French boarder? If so yes we are planning to do most of that!

    We thought about that, but decided we would make the journey down part of it and go the long way via twisties.

    When you thinking of going? We are late June... Could hook up at some point.

    Not that one mate, take a look at it on a paper map, starting with Sort and then it's the twisty road to La Seu, absolutely superb, getting wood thinking of it now lol.

    Haven't fixed dates yet, but probably June, just got to juggle things a bit to suit the others. Is Shaun on your trip?
