I have covered just over  1 800 km in the last two days, riding in or through seven states…

Filling in the Gaps…!!

There are literally dozens of posts that I still need to complete, or make a start on…!!

Most of them are from my arrival in Canada, through to our epic ride to Alaska and back…

Legendara ruta Cape - Cairo/ Cape To Cairo. Done.

Trebuie sa spunem asta de la inceput: am mers repede. Ne-a fost greu uneori sa tinem pasul, emotional si cultural vorbind, atunci cand tara in care ne aflam era alta uneori la saptamana. Ruta Est se spune ca e cea ‘usoara’. Partial pentru ca o poti f...
