As our time here on this blog comes to an end until the judges make their decision in January, I thought it would be a good opportunity to look back over our journey so far.
We blogged about our training rides across the length of England and around the Isle of Wight but here are 20 pictures that tell our story from London to Georgia so far...
We left from Hampton Court Palace on August 18th, fresh faced with shiny new bikes.
Joined by friends to our first night's camp, the coast and some all the way to Paris.
France was the perfect introduction to our tour: good weather, friendly drivers and delicious food.
Then we hit the Alps in Switzerland...
...2,000 vertical metres to the top.
Followed by a long winding descent.
We've taken every opportunity for a wild swim.
We reached our first one thousand miles in Italy...
...and made a tribute to the country with torches at our camp site.
We followed the Croatian coast, camping regularly by the sea.
We were recommended a wonderful secluded bay.
This photo tat Laura took on a Croatian island has been used in advertising campaign for our bikes!
2,000 miles
Albania was a surprise favourite with plenty of animals in the road...
...and muddy dirt tracks.
We reached Greece and were hosted by a kind orthodox monk.
We clocked 3,000 miles I'm Turkey...
...where we were hosted almost every single night by kind local hosts.
Now winter has tightened its grip and ahead of us lie the mountains of Georgia, Armenia and Iran followed by the rest of the world!
