Ron Limpes, The Netherlands, Mont Ventoux Bike Tour, September 2008
"...This was a fantastic experience. It was also great to see how much we looked forward to it, as soon as we decided, last year over a few glasses of wine during a barbecue, to climb Mont Ventoux. We wanted to adopt a healthier lifestyle, actually we wanted to lose weight... and we needed a challenge to help us do this. At first, there were just two of us. Ultimately, we were able to persuade 6 couples to join us, some of whom I had never met before...We cycled together a couple of times in the Flemish Ardennes and along the coast, and we spent a weekend cycling in Normandy, obviously with fruits de mer and a glass of wine ... a heavenly way to prepare yourself. And then there was this exceptionally well organised week. From the very time of the collection of our bicycles to their return in a perfectly maintained condition ... Brilliant, never to be forgotten. See you next year in Switzerland!! "
