The Shawshank Experience! No I’m not in jail and Kazakhstan is really growing on me but I did have a Shawshank experience earlier today. It’s now my third day in Kazakhstan and it looks as though the previous two posts didn’t get to you due to really bad wifi. In any case, I’m really enjoying […]

A really tough days cycling. I only managed to cover 120k despite being on a reasonably good and very flat road. A headwind from hell, gusting at Force 7 or so played havoc with progress all day. I could only manage 12k per hour for most of the day and felt like quitting several times. The […]
