Today’s ride on Komoot What are the locals called here in Morón de la Fronterra ? When I woke this morning, I really didn’t feel great. I felt like the head cold I’d been fighting off, had finally won. I pondered for half an hour over whether to take a rest day here and sleep …
Today’s ride on Komoot Another interesting day. It is Sunday and this morning was quite cold – about 5 degrees when I left. After getting through a few kms of cobbles in the old city, I took the smooth cycleways to the outskirts, then the rest of the day was on dirt and gravel roads …
Today’s ride on Komoot Today started well until I went outside. It wasn’t that bad, but there was low cloud and mist which wasn’t what I was expecting. I didn’t like the look of the local cafes for breakfast, so I left and dropped by a supermarket on my way out of town. It started …
Today’s ride on Komoot I had a fairly early start, as the trucks were resupplying the nearby supermarket and making a hell of a racket. I checked the ferry timetable for the short ride across the river to Spain (or the Google translation of it), and got ready. All went perfectly and I got to …

Today’s ride on Komoot After ten days with Timo, Kath and Minou, today was back to the business of solo travel. It felt very quiet but also very familiar. I’ll certainly miss the fun we had hanging out around the Algarve and in Lisbon. Today was also the start of my ride to the ‘stans. …
Google told me that it was zero degrees this morning when I left. My GPS said 6 but I suspect Google was more accurate – my nose and ears agreed. I went to an ATM but baulked at the 7 euro fee to use it, then went and had a coffee at the Roma Cafe …
Today’s ride on Komoot My time in San Sebastian flew by and this morning I was heading west towards Bilbao. After yesterday’s stunning weather, today was destined to be wet, wet and wet. I had stayed in the very nice Pension Easo but my room backed on the an apartment with a large family. The …
What a difference nice weather makes. Today is beautiful here in Bayonne. No clouds and a max of 19. It feels strange to wear shorts again. I’ve missed that. Since the first part of Wales, it’s generally been cool and wet I also miss the daily blogging. Although I’ve been more sociable while off the …
Today’s ride on Komoot Today, I had the pleasure of riding with @rickyroule whom I met in Killarney station (along with @eileen.on.a.bike). Richard was also in Dungarvan last night, so we got in touch and rode to Waterford. We’d spend the whole day on the Waterford Greenway along with hundreds of others who were walking, …
Today’s ride on Komoot I made my breakfast, packed and headed into town, down THAT hill and out of Youghal. I was on a fairly major road, but there was no traffic until I came to the really major road, where I’d be for a few kms. If I’d stayed on it, I would have …
