Episode 052: Le Grand Tour, Part 1 – The Dutch Coast / EuroVelo 12

The Cycling Europe Podcast enters a new era with this episode. Not only recorded on tour, this episode has also been edited on tour! Throughout July and August, new episodes of the podcast will be published telling the story of Andrew P. Sykes’ ‘Grand Tour’ through The Netherlands, Belgium, France, Switzerland and Germany before returning to his starting point at the Hook of Holland. In this first episode of the series, he’s in The Netherlands travelling along the west coast to Vlissingen. We also hear from novice touring cyclist Julian Ralph about his own cycling trip to France inspired by his grandfather’s experiences in the Second World War. The music is by Rob Ainsley.
