Brissie to the Gold Coast Cycle Challenge


Perhaps it was a good thing my road bike was destroyed by a certain motor vehicle as it gave me a chance to test out how my rockhopper would go on a longer ride. The 100km ride was completed in 4hrs 6mins cycling time - not bad for a mountain biker!!! That was only 20mins longer than last years effort on a road bike.

3 months 3 days to go

Well... today there is exactly 3 days and 3 months to go until I leave. Getting excited but there is still so much to organise!!!

Cairo to Capetown - a 12000km journey in just 4 months - travelling solely by peddle power - I know it's not everyones cup of tea but for a crazy person like me it seems somehow perfect.
