Hello. Am I the only one?

Clearly the answer to this quewstion is , 'yes'

 

Hi Mike - no your not on your own.  We've just transferred onto this trip (which was our original second choice) as Kyrgyrzstan was cancelled.  We cycled in India a couple of years ago and it was great fun but this trip looks a challenge!

How's the training going? How do you pronounce Kyrgyrzstan?

Well - not going tooooo bad.  We do a lot of running and long distance walking/ running so I'm hoping this will help.  Do quite a bit of cycling into work along the canal, but don't think the Birmingham and Fazeley Canal will help to prepare for those gradients!  We did the Cycling in Rajasthan trip a couple of years ago and it was great but the traffic was interesting!!  Im hoping it'll be a bit quieter. How's your training going? Have you done many exodus trips before?  Not sure who else is going??

I did the Tibet trip a couple of years ago and it was tough going. This one looks to be just as challenging. I've tried to put a few miles in over the last few weeks. Need to do something drastic about my chicken legs! Not long now!

Tibet sounds a great trip.  I am a bit nervous.....I did Kilimanjaro a few years back and I think we go to an equivalent height..on a pushbike this is gonna be a challenge!!Still there is always the bus.  Wonder who else is going?
