Ragtime cyclist is away…

With a bit of luck, as you read these very words, I should be grinding my way up some impossibly beautiful French col with the promise of a decent coffee and an ice cold lemonade at the top.

If I’m really lucky the alpine sun might be beating down too, and I’ll be having the kind of adventures for which blog posts pretty much write themselves.

I’ll be back in early September.

Until then…
