29 July 2010 - London to Dover, UK
29 June 2010 Dover, UK
I am in Dover, booked into a country hotel. Done 120 miles and the bike feels great. I finally feel that the adventure have started!
Tomorrow morning early I have to be at the ferry terminal to cross over into France..
Looking forward to a nice cold one. Not too tired, tomorrow will be a long day as I want to be in Reims, France tomorrow night.
