A quick note on the nature of the trip so far and the unnatural levels of testosterone. After five days we have still not had a hot meal, most meals consist of as many calories as we can buy for our money. Anything with less than 500 calories gets discarded. Most meals consist of a whole cooked chicken, ripped off the carcass and stuffed into a baguette, washed down by a few local beers and then followed by some kind of energy dense cake. Today we bought some carrots to add a litle vitamins but geoff couldnt eat it and instead went straight to the cake.
This trip seems to have turned in a massive fitness session with every opportunity for a little more exercise grabbed. While waiting at the cash machine geoff was doing calf raises.
The chat is awful. Topics of conversation include physical exercise (phys), our low levels of hygiene, beers and women.
About the trip, we are in Brussels after an 80km day. The weather is amazing, i have got a little sunburn. It is still a touch cold with both of us waking up at 4am every morning shivering. Our bodies will adapt so that is fine.

Superb! Glad to hear your taking good care of yourselves. Is that recliner really yours Duncs? Whatever happened to the beauty you had at Uni; that's the sort of bike I'd choose for 10,000 km.
