Travail « Lanterne Rouge

039;le velo et la vie'. The variety of work to-date has covered a one off cut of grass right up to a near complete renovation of a barn. You can see some of the work I’ve done in my portfolio. On flickr.com. I am very fortunate to work with a friend of mine, Neil. Now in my working career I have been very fortunate to have worked with some really great people and Neil is one of them. In addition to working with me he also runs a camp site, Chez-Rambaud. Which he set up with his partner Nicky. In the case...

039;le velo et la vie'. I’d forgotten how nice it is to just go out on the bike and ride how I want. In fact its nice to be able to generally do my own thing without having to think about focusing on competition training. On reflection I enjoyed but its nice it’s over. I can now get on a bike ride as hard or as easy as I like without worrying about getting the ‘best’ out of every pedal turn. I start wondering where that training manual is I was give a couple of years ago. I find it and skim through t...

I hope that this information might be useful for non-European cyclists who are planning a cycling trip the mountains of France and Italy. A few miscellaneous items:. If you find a stale web pointer, typo, mistake, etc. please email me. Yes I know that Europe has more than two countries but I'm only trying to deal with France and Italy so, at least for now, when you see "European" pronounce it "French and Italian" : ). Companies who run tours for riders. European Maps and Guides. Tours in Italy and France.

La Fléche Normande « Lanterne Rouge

https://lanternrouge.wordpress.com/2010/09/23/la-fleche-normande

039;le velo et la vie'. Last Sunday marked the end of a series of cyclosportives I’ve competed in this summer. This last one started and finished in the coastal town of Cabourg in Normandy. The weekends objective for me was to protect the 5th position I had gained during the Trophée National. It was always going to be tough as 2 of the riders below me were technically stronger than me and without some luck a great result and on the day would leap-frog me in the competion. 8230; I joined them! Although st...

Mon velo « Lanterne Rouge

https://lanternrouge.wordpress.com/bikes

039;le velo et la vie'. I originally bought my bike in 2000, as I began training for an epic 1000 mile charity-ride from northern Spain back to Gloucestershire, which was home in those days. Originally it was a blue Trek 1200, aluminium and originally with steel forks. It had great reviews (Cycling Plus. At the time, but at around 700 it was a few models down from the model then used by Armstrong but suited my budget. It weighs around 9 kilos so is far from the lightest bike around. I have also ridden a ...
