Sunshine, no traffic and lots of flowers – heading south through the Alentejo countryside
I’ve just been sent a whole load of pictures from one of the riders on the Border Castles Tour we ran in April. (Next one is in October.)
Previous posts have talked about this tour so I won’t write much. Instead I’ve picked out some of my favourite pictures. Thanks for sharing them, Bruce!
Marcy gets ready for a hill on Day One – luckily it’s going down
The Pedal Portugal guides demonstrate synchronized pointing. (Pay attention Dan and Jennifer!)
Is it a pushmi-pullyu? No, just Dan and Judi with the tandem at Reguengos de Monsaraz
We didn’t sign up for rain!.. Jennifer, Amy and John take shelter in a castle doorway

Hmm, fine vintage. Huw trys to look as if he knows what he’s talking about
Dave and Marcy ask if they can have a room with a larger window next time. Particularly as they’ve locked themselves in their room!

Dirt road on way out to the standing stones near Evora on the last day
We’ve made it! Huw and Carolyn celebrate getting everyone back to Evora.
Just means a kick up the backside!
Not long back from Portugal, a lot of similarly busy roads with occasional traffic sometimes. May be the kick up the bahookie to write it up.
Go for it! (Never heard of a ‘bahookie’ before but it sounds painful.)
