I don't think my post is that relevant hear as I'm in a different continent, but my other half and me frequently drive from the south of spain to the UK. when we've done this we've stopped in various wine areas. This has made me really want to cycle some of these areas -eg Bordeaux or the Loire (my preference). I love the idea of a few days cycling round the chateaux of the loire. the issue is - what do do with all the wine my other half would want to buy?
