Sounds perfect. Will keep that one in mind.
Now that I have decided where I'm going, which bike to take is the next decision.
The first option would be my Long Haul Trucker that has seen me through many a tour in the Pyrenees, Spain and the UK. Reliable, comfortable and rather dull. If I went down this route I would camp.
The less sensible option would be to take the road bike. Riding it for the first time this year today sans mudguards reminded me how much more entertaining it is to ride than the Surly. I am rather tempted to stick a saddle bag and handlebar bag on it, stay in cheap hotels and take a bit more pleasure in the cycling itself.
What would you? (I love these kinds of dilemmas!)
