Preparing for journey and donation site goes live

Hello Dear Readers! Myself and my wife, Ruth, will be leaving on a jet plane, both with return tickets so return journey dates are agreed, this coming Sunday 22nd. We arrive in JFK at 20.05 and then will be staying in an Airbnb apartment in the East Village of New York for 4 nights. After which the cycling starts in a fashion. Preparing for the journey has been somewhat stressful in the last few weeks. There have been daily Amazon and other deliveries, bookings to make, Blossom to fix and spruce up, panniers to pack and re-pack, new glasses to get used to, ask Ruth what I need to do next etc. etc. My technical skills (i.e. I can move the mouse and make the arrow move across the screen at the same time) did not desert me and I have managed to get both UK and USA donations site live and ready.  Within hours, if not minutes, if not seconds, the UK site has received many donations and I will be sending out big thank you emails today - probably using font size 24.

15th June 2018 Friday – This was a shift and a half

Hello Everybody! Route: Hanksville to Oak Creek Campground no Boulder instead For the non-mathematicians out there: Distance: 83 miles (Total 2,672) Average speed: 9.5 mph Calories: 2,740 Cycling time: 8h 46min Average cadence: 71 rpm Climb: 6,604t, Descent: 4,334ft Heart (yes I have one): Max 137 Aver 114 Aver Temp: 29C, Max temp 4 0 C Temperament: It sounded like a good idea at the time At long last, I am actually trying to hydrate myself during the night. This involves having a bottle of water in arms reach and drinking whenever I wake up during the night. The first time I woke up in my Hanksville RV (which Ruth mis-booked as we all know) I had a thought. Rather than stop at Oak Creek campground, get the tent up, cook some food, ask the flies and ants to leave my tent, go to sleep, wake up 6-8 times during the night, take the tent ...

27th April 2018 Friday – Industrial but I have a new friend

Hello Everybody! From Rainy then Sunny USA. Route: Philadelphia to Aberdeen (not the one in Scotland) For the non-mathematicians out there: Distance: 115km (Total 281km) Average speed: 19.39 kph Calories: 3,426 Cycling time: 5h 57min Average cadence: 67 rpm Climb: 619m, Descent: 578m Temperament: Nice, not nice, then nice again Aver Temp: 15C, Max temp 20C Yesterday was quite tough as I had a headwind of around 10mph all day. Gets on your nerves after a while. Today was the opposite and I enjoyed a luvverly tailwind which is why my average speed improved quite a bit and also I am a cycling god (small “g” just in case). Also I cycled on some fairly major roads, think dual carriageways sometimes and often with thrice lanes. The bad news - it was not picturesque and occasionally I needed to do some avoidance manoeuvres (i.e. when the cycle lane disappeared suddenly). In summary it was a very industrial landscape type...
