Here are some resources you may find useful for planning a cycling trip through Europe. I used these when choosing a cycling route from Greece to England.

Eileen Sheridan in 1954 I was nervous to meet Eileen Sheridan. Not because she is a cycling icon; having set all kinds of records, most notably in 1954 when she cycled from Land’s End to John o’Groats in two days, 11 hours and seven minutes. Not because I spent a freezing February day riding around in vintage cycling gear on a replica of the Hercules bike she rode pretending to be her for a documentary. I was nervous because I knew after meeting her I would want to cycle from Land’s End to John o’ Groats. Me being Eileen I went over for a cup of tea on my birthday morning. She actually lives just around the corner from where I went to school. We talked about everything from how I wished she had worn caps so I wouldn’t have been so cold during filming to our love of cycling, swimming, jewellery, how the make up artist managed to make my 2 feet of straight hair look like her short curly style with the help of 109 kirby grips, all the strange coincidendences that made us alike and led to me playing her. She showed me jewellery she has made, glasses she has etched, photographs and art she loves. The cup of tea turned in to a whole morning and the start of a great friendship. Eileen and I at the premier of Come on Eileen at Look Mum No Hands I took with me the bike that The Vintage Bike Cave had made especially for the film. I love riding that bike but it hates me. The little time I’ve spent on it I’ve had two puncture. TWO. As it authentically has tubular tires, I just don’t have the repair knowledge so The Vintage Bike Cave have loved me. I explained how I try not to get mad at getting punctures by believing they happen for a reason and are fate’s way of saving you from an accident you may have later or meeting someone you may not want to. Eileen’s thoughts on this were simply “I never really got punctures” What an absolute legend. Eileen with the replica bike made for the film by the Vintage Bike Cave And yes, as I feared I’m planning an End to End cycle. Just not on that bike. Watch a clip of the film Come on Eileen by Anthony Collins here or head along to the Yorkshire Festival of Cycling for the next full screening which coincides with the start of the Tour de France.
Wes Siler, Hell for Leather Of all the new concepts making their debut at the Tokyo Motor Show, it’s the Yamaha Y125 Moegi drawing the most interest from friends and readers. Why? It probably has something to do with the inherent conservatism of motorcycling — the styling is relatively retro with that peanut-ish tank — […]

How many Copenhageners can you squeeze onto a cargo bike? There must be a record here, but just looking around four or five is certainly doable. With a little imagination you can enjoy being very close to your friends on the ride. This special model is even made to be a nifty five seater. Only having one driver also gives room for the passengers to have a little "something" en route! Happy Cycling!
