Despite his global travels, Europe remains one of Gordon’s favourite places to explore. He travels there as often as possible and has experienced many of the continent’s classic cycling and island-hopping routes. Recent journeys include cycling through the Baltics and the Balkans, exploring Croatia’s Adriatic islands by bike and boat, riding along the Danube and tackling the dramatic climbs of Madeira.
