hi Fraissie, I’m so impressed with the riding you do, I’m even thinking of going back to more riding myself. I did a lot when I was young. My only trouble is that where I live is so hilly so I have to look at how I can transport my bike. My son, lives outsiden and has taken up triathlons inhisnlate thirties and rides up holland down dale quite happily. I’m off to Toowoomba tomorrow as Dean is 41 on 9 September, having a son in his forties really makes you think.
I’m really looking forward to meeting again when you are here.
P.S. Paid for my flights today – so exciting.
PPS. I am so in awe of all the wonderful travel you have done.

Hi Lyn, you should do what we do – get a good bike trailer and drive to the best spots! I began with a very short, very flat run and went from there. My son is about to turn 31 and I think that’s pretty astonishing. I was talking to him on skype today and suddenly realised I’ll be seeing him in less than a week!
It’ll be great to catch up.
And, yes, travel is one of my great pleasures in life!
