Every Turn of the Wheel is a Revolution

September 6th, 2007

A week from today, we’ll be off. 12 days, 800K (and then some…depending on the exact route and how often we get lost), leaving from St. Jean de Pied de Port in the South of France, travelling the Camino De Santiago through Northern Spain all the way to Santiago De Compestela. I can’t wait!

I think cycling is transformative and very special (I’ve said this before…), so it’ll be amazing to get to see a different country from the saddle. My bike is being serviced (new front derailleur cable, fitting of a pannier frame, possibly replace the bottom bracket), so I’ll pick that up on Saturday when I’m back in Dublin. Other than that there’s not too much to do, I’ve packed my gear so that I can bring it home at the weekend and leave it there until I fly out (from Dublin) next Thursday. It’s going to be great; I’ll post up before we leave.
