A training log, but not really

    Hey there,

    We all know the benefits of training, and read others training habits to see how we can better our own. But on Friday I am setting off on a tour in France (1,600km) with zilch amount of training done, so I thought I would share my results when I get back, just to highlight what lack of training might do. Of course, hopefully, i will find that training may be an over-rated necessisity (thats not a necessity).

    I never planned not to do any training, it was just laziness, and I actually cancelled the trip last week, but have rebooked it in a gung-ho/ suicidal mood.
    I am cycling from Dublin to Montpellier; Dublin to Rosslare- ferry to Roscoff, and in stages down to Bordeaux, follow the canal du midi to Narbonne and across to Montpellier, where i will get a train to Cherbourg and cycle back to Dublin from Rosslare.

    So hopefully i will survive it to post my findings. If my family read this after, I want my epitaph to read 'i tried' =P

    Best of luck. Some of the area around the Canal du Midi is very good.
    Castelnaudary in particular is nice. The local speciality is Cassoulet which is fantastic.

    Duck fat, duck legs, beans and local sausage.
    Heavy but great.
    In Castel a choir from the legion sign in the local church. Very good actually.
