If you can find a copy probably on amazon if anywhere PEDALS AND PETTYCOATS by Mary Elsy
Its about 4 girls in the 1950's cycle camp around post war Europe. Its well written and no pretencious
language. Could not put it down.

cut a tomato in half and sprinkle with plenty of salt to replace what is lost tasty way of doing it.

There is not much point in touring with a loaded bike if all you want to do is put miles in.
You might as well have a light audax bike a credit card and a tooth brush plan your hotel stops
approx 100 miles apart.
