  1. I may have missed a reference to this somewhere but if not, Excess
    Baggage on R4 on Saturday featured three long distance cyclists. A
    retired headmistress who has cycled round the world twice, once each
    way. A bloke who shadowed the TdF. And, a bloke who cycled down France
    alone after his mate wussed out on day two, he as so enthused he's now
    planning a culinary cycle ride around America (the whole (or is is both)
    continent(s)).

    Probably available on Listen Again till next Saturday.

    trip.. I've got her first book. Very inspiring.

    Very headmistressy too.

    Yes, I heard that - it was great.

    Here's the website for the chap who is cycling across the americas in
    search of the perfect meal:

    I caught the programme on Saturday and thought it was a fine piece. All
    very positive about the joys of cycling and how all that most people
    need is the will to do it. I was particularly taken with Anne Mustoe
    saying she did not get involved in lots of training for her ride around
    the world. She just set off, getting fitter as she went along.
