    Today I'm all packed with two panniers and a fluoro yellow kit bag ready to set off for Portsmouth where i'll catch the overnight ferry to Caen/Ouistreham. Cherry (that's what i've christened my red Tracer 700) had her first service last week so is all ready to go. Tomorrow morning i'll set off for Dave's @thebiglad 's house where we are scheduled to be consuming a bottle or two of nice wine and no doubt some nice cheeses. After a sound nights sleep we will set off for Ax-les-Thermes which is somewhere in the French Pyrenees for three nights before we go mountaineering. As we go I will attempt to take and post some nice pictures just to show you what great weather, food and drink we're enjoying, oh, and the sights of course.
