It’s raining hard against the Devonshire countryside when I speak to Ollie White. He’s calling me from the shelter of a bus stop framed by patchwork hills and angry grey clouds - but Ollie is all delight. It’s his last full day of cycling from Madrid to the Glastonbury Festival.
This, Ollie’s first ever multi-day adventure, started five weeks ago in sunny Madrid. In a whirl of house moves, job terminations and frenzied farewells to friends, he packed his essentials onto his Kona Rove gravel bike and set off on his first stretch out of the city North-East to Guadalajara.
