Andrew P. Sykes sets off with Tim Sanders to cycle the length of La Vélo Francette in northern France. After taking a ferry to Cherbourg, the dynamic duo head east by train to Bayeux before mounting their bikes and continuing on two wheels. At Ouistreham on the Normandy coast they start their journey south along La Vélo Francette, a 600 km route that travels inland to La Rochelle on the French Atlantic coast. Will they arrive in time to catch their trains and ferries home? A cycle-camping adventure (with two hotels thrown in for good measure) interspersed with the music of the incomparable Rob Ainsley. Sit back and let Andrew and Tim (and Rob) take the cycling strain…
