16 Sundays in France - Cycling from Calais to Montpellier

This is the story of two old fools, les 'deux fous' (and one fous' long suffering wife) on bikes who followed in the pedal steps of Jon Porteous and Rob Gullen, pioneers and writers of 'Wine-ding down through France' from Calais to Montpellier. Fous número un is Grant; more than ably assisted by his wife Kirsten, and fous número deux is me, Ben, Grant's brother. Neither of us have a great deal of experience in long distance cycling but the gap in experience is made up for in bulldog spirit. We are closer to 50 years of age than would ideally be the case for this sort of endeavour. It would also be fair to say that Bradley Wiggins would not have to fear losing his place on team Sky to either of these two 'athletes'.
