There were vultures circling above us and I was told to keep moving in case they thought I was dead...
Travels with a Brompton is a sparkling narrative about the adventures of an English couple and their folding bicycles over nearly 30 years of exploring France. This is a wine-fuelled account of sweaty pedalling and hard-earned freewheeling via cols, war memorials, lavender fields, and vineyards. It is a travel guide for those who long for two-wheeled trips in France and a lively read for the armchair traveller who chooses sofa over saddle.
The author's Brompton, Modestine, is a descendant of the donkey Robert Louis Stevenson took on his travels in the Cevennes.
