Pyrenees 2026 — Custom Kits! 🚴♀️
|
Hey Reader Happy New Year! Hope you've enjoyed some down time ver the break and been able to rack up plenty of k's on the bike. Now we're in 2026, the countdown to Europe is well and truly on. Speaking of the trip... Three years ago was the first time we had a custom kit for the France trip, and it was a real hit. In the following years, it has become even more popular. If you're keen, I've created a new design for this year. No pressure to purchase, and nothing in it for me. Baz Doosey was a Central Coast Cycling Club member who handles the GoBik clothing brand in Australia. He helped put this together and can answer questions, along with me, if you have any. https://www.cyclingbay.com.au/cccc It has all the regions and towns we'll be staying in, with a little Aussie flavour too, so you can easily show where we're from when speaking to the French locals. Here is some more info... The jerseys come in relaxed or race fit, and the sizing chart worked well for everyone in past years. If in doubt, I err on the smaller size, especially with the knicks. For those who know me, I wear a size small and am 168cm and 67kg. Feel free to order directly from the shop link above to purchase the jersey, knicks or both. NOTE: There are two jersey options. The CX Pro is the style I've had before, and everyone loved it. I've asked Baz to add the Carrera 2.0, the hot-weather option and what I'll be going for. Also, you will see there are both men's and women's specific knicks and a choice of race or relaxed fit to suit everyone. Let me know if you have any questions. Hope you like the designs!

Hey Reader Planning has been well underway for our 2027 cycling adventure! Here is the first update; I'll keep you posted as we go. I had early access to the Tour de France route through a contact in France, so I've secured almost all the hotel bookings and planned our itinerary. The only hotel I still haven't officially secured, even though I'm assured it's on hold for us, is a new hotel in the Pyrenees. Anyone who has been on a past trip will know how amazing our little hotel was in...
Hey Reader Hope you're well and as excited about the upcoming trip as I am! Everything else is coming together nicely. All hotels are confirmed, and deposits have been paid. Room changes and requests have involved some juggling behind the scenes, but that's finalised now. The vans and truck are booked and paid for. Big thanks to our drivers — Steve, Bernie and Warrick! It's all systems go! All up, we'll be a group of 24... with a couple of riders arriving late or departing early.It's a mixed...
