The Taj Mahal… Again
After yesterdays random finish in the middle of nowhere but somewhere within an hour or two’s crawl by coach to Agra, today was Taj day. Trying…. hard…. not…. to…. say…. it…. […]
Horn Please; Bye Bye, Bye Bye – Cycle Day 5
We woke up this morning to our last ever day of cycling in India (I think I can safely say this is true for pretty much everyone). We have a […]
Pimp Your Bike – Cycle Day 4

Packed and Ready
The time has come. It’s the Sunday before I leave for India and today is packing day. I am lucky in as much as by packing today Nige will bring […]
Lack-lustre Cycle Training and a Dash of Complacency
