Hi Chris

Happy travels
Colin
Hi Colin,
That hill sure was tough work, but I got to Avebury in the end so just a short ride to Marlborough for my media interview tomorrow. The sign is still next to me giving me a laugh! I think I cycled through Warminster actually, beautiful area, and thanks for the offer of a bed 🙂
Take care,
Chris
Great adventure for a great cause!
Wish you the best on the road and enjoy it!
Thanks mate – Reims was a bit of a nightmare yesterday with my first (minor) crash and something stolen from my bike for the first time… but otherwise I’m enjoying every moment!
Cheers
Chris
The concert went really well at school, the hall was full and mr p bathing in beans was a hit!! Hope its all going well for you 🙂
Thats great news Amber, well done! I wish I was there to see Sir swarming in beans!!! All is well; clocked up around 1700km now and about to turn north towards Scandinavia.
Take care,
Chris
i’m pravesh kumar & i’m so happy
you’re so inspiring..:)
Well done! There is nothing more that I can really say but besides you are doing a really wonderful thing and the photos and the posts that I have seen so far, as a photographer (amateur), make me jealous. AWESOME STUFF!!
Truly inspirational, we should all take a leave out of your book and do what we can to make a difference! I wish you the best of luck in your amazing journey!
Hey Chris.. stumbled across your blog and found it quite inspiring. Well done mate, keep those pedals turning and best of luck.
Hi Wayne,
Thanks for your kind donation to AICR on my justgiving page – it kept me going against all that headwind on the island of Pag! I’ve now reached Bosnia, where the legacy of recent wars are frequently witnessed from the roadside, and people’s hospitality has continued to provide shelter each evening.
All the best,
Chris
Chris your are in our thoughts always, hope you get bike sorted.
From sue, josh ,Tim and Sam

Hi Chris.Really good chatting yesterday, and I hope you remembered the sudden change in incline going down that hill. 🙂 Steve
Hi Steve,
Thanks again for having me around to your home – it was a pleasure to meet you. haha it was far from a “sudden change in incline”… it was a killer! Although I did get my reward on the other side when I stopped at the hot springs before Ranong! Take care and hope to hear from you again… I just might pop in for a hello next time I’m in the region 😉
Chris
Re Penang -best street food in SE Asia. A few hundred miles North it’s damn cold lol. Happy New Year.
Your not wrong Stephen – the food was just incredible. I’ve couchsurfed with locals too in Ipoh and Georgetown, so they’ve known the best places and dishes! I might be a bit heavier when I pedal up the Cameron Highlands tomorrow…
Happy new years!
Chris
Do you remember we discussed those 2 Brits who were killed by that idiot who was rummaging about for his hat? Well now we have another. A driver slammed into a bicycle race in Kanchanaburi. In typical Thai style the driver fled the scene.
http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/699869-reckless-driver-slams-into-cyclists-kills-one-kanchanaburi/
Shocking! Cyclists aren’t having much luck anywhere at the moment – in NSW cyclist deaths have really increased this past year, and there isn’t much being done to improve our chances!
Hi Sir,
I hear you are close to the end of the cycle now, what you have achieved is truly remarkable and is a massive inspiration to other. Oh and I forgot, this is Ben Ledgeway from the Freeston Academy in Normanton, England, you taught English there just before you started your voyage to Australia. The English department is thinking about and wishing you well 🙂 Hope you remember me, I was the little fellow with the shaggy blonde hair and braces in year 9. I am truly amazed by the monumental mission you have very nearly accomplished in the name of cancer research.
Good luck for the rest of your journey! And I would like to wish you all the best for life after the journey!
I would love to hear back from you and to know how you are getting on 🙂
Best wishes,
Ben Ledgeway
Hi Ben,
Great to hear from you buddy; ofcourse I remember both you and the class! Thanks for all your support – it means so much to know Freeston are following my adventure to the end! I hope that your also learning many lessons from Shakespeare as well as my expedition, haha 😉
Please tell anyone from the class that I said hello, and that hopefully I can drop in for a hello before use all successfully kill the GCSE!!!
All the best mate,
Chris
I’ve just listened to the Adelaide Radio interview. You’ll have to write a book LOL. I have a Thai friend who lives in Townsville, Queensland. Her dad is very ill with cancer, apparently he’s riddled with it. She came back last month, and the doctor told her he’d got months to live. So she went back to Aus to work. She’s been ill since she got back with Chicken pox of all things. Obviously Thais don’t do like parents in the west do, and try their hardest to get Chicken pox out of the way as kids. However I digress. She has just had the call to get back, he’s got 2 or 3 days. 7000 AUD for a flight on short notice! ( I wrote this, then rewrote it as it sounded like I was speaking Yorkshire Ha Ha.)
Hi Stephen
Sorry to hear about your friend’s father – cancer affects so many people unfortunately!
No book planned I’m afraid – the website has been enough work as it is, and I can’t wait to return to teaching 🙂
All the best,
Chris
This has me feeling sick to the pit of my stomach
