CYCLISTS’ REUNION – SEPT 2012

 This year’s cyclists’ reunion brought usalong beautiful Lake Constance and the Rhine, skirting theSwiss-German border. It was an international bunch of cyclists we’d meton the road over the years. Times have changed, but kiddy trailers andbabies on the way were no hindrance to having a great weekend. The routewas chosen accordingly, with picnic spots replacing gradients for arelaxed get-together.

Accommodation was at Bolderhof, an organic farm with cereals, vegetables, dairy cowsand buffaloes. As usual, it was a laid-back sleep-in-the-barn deal, withdinner and breakfast thrown in.
