Ed Pratt has a new series on youtube, this time touring southwest England on a Thorn tandem with Rohloff.
Part one shows them collecting brand new tandem from SJSC in Bridgewater.

He's parted company with his Kyrgyz girlfriend (at the end of a trip around Georgia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PXtRLnv920Y) and traded in the tandem for a Nomad https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Td5Vg0VpMRE . I wonder where he plans to go next.

I enjoyed that, his experience of bivvying is similar to my one and only night, though I entered into the spirit of minimalist more than he did!
Andre Jute:
Michael Cimino was a film director of lyrical genius, seen in such movies as Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, The Deer Hunter, and particularly in the financial failure, Heaven's Gate, now deservedly a cult film. As a teenager growing up in the country, I went to many weddings and barn dances as depicted in Heaven's Gate, and can thus testify to the authenticity of that extended scene.
Among Cimino's projects stalled in development were:
-- an adaptation of The Yellow Jersey by Ralph Hume, a novel about a bicycle marathon
-- a film set against the Tour de France which turned out to be impossible to shoot because of the close confines of the roads on which much of the race is held
They could have been such beautiful films...
