France Diaries 1: Ron Hill Club Special Vests
I’m on holiday in France for 3 weeks.
So I’m going to record as many very short podcast episodes as I can. As I've been inspired recently by listening to the Cycling Podcast and Escape Collective Tour de France dispatches.
I’m going to record everything on my evening walks in nature. I don't want to be that guy sitting around the accommodation trying to shush people because I’m recording my very important podcast.
Today I’m at La Plage du Gurp. About an hour north of Bordeaux. And I’m talking about Ron Hill Club Special Vests.
