    Is anyone going anywhere nice this year?

    Turkey looks to be fairly cheap at the moment.

    Does it get busy?

    Might give this a shot, the 3 ascents up Mont Ventoux in a single day. Or for the very stupid, 4 ascents (including the off road one) or 6 ascents (3 ascents, twice each)

    Rather you than me.
    I cycled from samoens to cluses once. On a mtb, great on the way there, near on killed me on my walk back up the hill.
    Nearly killed myself coming down from samoens 1600m on the mtb again.

    Given it up.

    Looks like this thread will be about extolling the benifits of taking a foreign holiday, my preference is North Devon been going there for two weeks every year for the last ten, in the same hotel bed breakfast and evening meal, cream teas in the day, bring it on :)

  19. I was going to say "Yes, we're going somewhere nice every day - out the front door" :p

    Where do you go in ND, facs?

    (Used to love going to Turkey - fab place, fab people. What a tragedy.)

    Lynton/Lynmouth DA, beautiful area for walks either coastal or inland, found it by accident when we were staying at Woolacoome about 10 years ago, I don't do sun sea or sand and hate flying luckily my dragon is similar so off to Devon we go, only flown about half a dozen times in my life and I am in my mid sixties, went to Majorca once and hated it to hot, bin to Nice and loved it.problem is once we get there I spend half the holiday worrying about the flight home!
