RE: Why did I cycle from the UK to Russia?

in #cycling7 years ago

Thanks a lot! Ahh mate tell me about it, didn't even know of chamois cream at that time either! What kind of saddle do you ride on?

That's all I needed, one person to want to hear about that, consider that a future piece of writing! Going to be reading part 1 of your tales of a cyclist on my break today.

Thanks a lot, appreciate it!

@hopefulvagabond it is a racing saddle, but I only do a 20 mile commute so it is nothing in comparison to your experience. And now that I am writing it, I feel a little embarrassed even making that comparison.

Can't wait to read it, I will look forward to it. And hopefully you will find time to tell as all about the rest of your journey to china once you get going again.

I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it. There are still a few more stories in that series left to come, I am not completely up to date on my commuting career yet.

Eh man, don't feel embarassed, at least you're using your bike to do a 20-mile commute, better than most so feel good!
That's the plan, my brother recommends I try write 2-3 articles a day whilst travelling about anything, be it the music that day, a person I met that day... could be anything ... what do you think would be personally interesting though mate?

Did just read part 1... perfect. 😆

Glad you enjoyed it.

2-3 articles a day, that would be impressive. I think I am only going to be able to do that in a week.

I like seeing the world and its people, so stories of what you have done that day and people you have met sounds perfect. I would definitely try and get lots of piccies though and just supplement them with text, a picture says a thousand words and all that, @sweetsssj is excellent at doing this. Plus it might make it easier to keep that 2-3 article a day target.

Yeah I was thinking that was a lot too... probably won't be that, but I'll try as much as possible! I know from the past I had to conjure up enough energy to write my journal...
That's great input mate, really appreciate it, so much so that I have screenshotted it, ha! That's a good shout with the photos, I should just give context to it... I've seen her posts, she's got a good following from it too... will look more at her posts though
