Finally got confirmation of a definite booking on a "guaranteed to go" trip to Nepal/Tibet for the Lhasa to Kathmandu ride. Been training for last couple of months in Canaries and Mallorca, spending 7 weeks out of the first thirteen weeks of the year riding abroad, in the sun. Unfortunately not as enthusiastic about riding in the cold, but should be getting used to it I guess..
Just got a few decisions to make about taking my own bike or hiring one, but bought it specifically ...
