May is a time when we can officially go outside without bringing an extra hat and jacket with us whenever we leave the house. And when the weather gets like this, the call of the bike makes itself known. Of course, when we are cycling and are caught up in the passion of the sport, enthusiastic cyclists among us will agree that with things start to heat up, all we want to do is rip off those restricting Lycra shorts and be at one with nature and the bike.
But, before things get too weird. It’s probably best to keep the shorts on for now. After all, it’s only May, it’s not that warm. And you don’t want to give the drivers any unexpected surprises - because safety is always number one.
Whilst this month’s issue is a little more subdued than the above scenario, the content is still rather exciting. Setting off in Mexico, travelling through Switzerland, Greece, Serbia and then finally arriving in France, our contributors continue to tell us about their funny, tense and, of course, memorable bike journeys
