Two final Videos - A Surprise Party was Waiting for Us

I met Chris in Northern Spain and cycled down to the finish yesterday. Hats off to Chris - 4500km/2800 miles covered – amazing!



Plenty of money raised for Tiago - you can see him with his Mum in the videos.

That's the end of this blog I think. So where shall we go in 2012??????  Touring is addictive!


Job done.

Where is that dam hotel?

Trying to find my room, built in a dam complex near Noia at the bottom of a steep valley, whilst contemplating the lovely ride out!!

A tricky day on the bikes was anticipated with mist, strong winds and poor visibility as Luis headed south towards Portugal and Chris continued on the Camino to the end of the world.
