Cycling in the footsteps of giants
Our D-Day Memorial Tour Our objective for this tour was to take in some of the more significant parts of Normandy and Brittany during D-Day memorial week. Our journey started once again from Portsmouth but this time on the fast ferry which only took three and half hours in all and took off at the relatively gentle time of 9.00 am. Provided that the Channel is flat the crossing is pretty comfortable and the ferry is undeserving of the nickname “the vomit- comet”. My only gripe
