    It was only a short ride to the campsite today, the meeting was the priority. Parc du Soleil à Trepied Views[257] Je suis très heureux voir cette. Yay, I am going to a meeting tonight. Views[927] This morning's state of affairs Views[313] I was so happy to see that campsite, without a doubt the hardest day's ride yet. Montreuil Views[1002] I had conquered it! Views[276]
     
    At the top of the biggest hill I had faced so far, on my third day. Note the unhappiness Views[441] My stove rocks! Runs off of almost anything you give it. Although it is loud, at top heat, it will throw out a massive amount of energy Views[211] A nightly ritual, wine with a massive book dealing eloquently with the rise and fall of the Third Reich Views[225] Glad to see I have the essentials right Views[204] Second campsite, and extremely unbusy. No wonder, it took me and hour and a trip through a forest to find. Rebecques Views[192]
     
    MaccyDees rocks in whatever country you are in. This one was in Saint-Omer, and looked oddly familiar Views[209] Arty Views[186] Perfect weather for riding Views[576] Hill!!! It may not look like much, but try hauling 140kg plus the bike up there. Views[230] Note the happiness Views[203]
     
    Ready to face my first big day Views[195] In the morning, reading my absorbing book, while drinking the first coffee I'd brewed Views[165] Again at the campsite Views[191] My frist campsite, in Ardres Views[191] The view inside my tent Views[203]
     
    All set for my first day Views[738] The first day of the trip, set off at 12ish. Views[199] Finally, I was in Calais, this is the Bonsai Hotel Views[208] On the ferry, with some wine, probably an unwise choice, as I then had to cycle to the hotel Views[186] I was alone on the lane for an hour, amidst so many massive lorries and cars Views[245]
     
    Waiting for the ferry Views[239] Thankfully on the train from London to Dover, the lady in the background was to stalk me all the way to Calais, even staying in the same hotel Views[242] A handy German took this for me. I turned around and then cycled over it Views[803] Finally on the main train from York to London Views[232] At malton station Views[240]
     
    Bike all packed and ready to go, with literally no minutes to spare. Views[202] Bike before I went Views[204]
