York to Faro....the route!

So after having decided to depart Blighty for a few weeks then I've picked this route. The plan is to cycle and mainly camp as I make my way slowly....but as fast as I can to the Mediterranean. Hopefully it will be day after day of heat and the opportunity to guzzle, guilt free, at the end of it and still lose weight. I don't depart for the Hull to Zeebrugge ferry until the beginning of July and so I will bring you up to speed with the procurement of kit ("boys and toys" .....I know), the training, losing weight, finding interesting places to visit etc. Stay tuned!
