We leave on Wednesday, Business Class to Heathrow then on to Amsterdam. We will spend a few days in Amsterdam then start 2 weeks of biking.The first tour will be a hotel bike experience in Friesland, then we will do another canal bike tour from Bruges.

Berlin for 5 days follows next and then in to London for the Paralympics.

This will be a bit different on a whole lot of levels. The bike tour will be with strangers , last year we had 3 other couples to make a strong posee,as well when we get to London for the first time I will a spectator rather coaching/support for Donovan.

More to come on all these fronts as we will use the blog to replace email while away.
