Warning to anyone thinking about doing a cycle touring trip. This will change your life. I’ve done two cycle trips and both of them were completely amazing. My first trip was in 2013 where a rode from UK to italy over three months and the second was in 2015 where I rode from Geneva to Cannes coving 1080 kilometres and climbing 18 mountains. Both of these trip left me with amazing memories which brings me back to my warning message. This Will Cange Your Life.

Planning A trip

My first trip took very little planning really. I decided that I would ride the coast of Spain, Portugal, France and Italy. Then I choose a bike. I went with a Thorn Sherpa. Then I looked at panniers and then racks. After that I got myself a google nexus tablet and a Panasonic camera. Oh I also got a small tent, sleeping bag and mat. The last thing I got was a cooking stove.

So out of all of these items I got what was the most important. Well for me it was this.. My Dreams. Your Dreams become reality. I true believe that this is the single most important thing .
