It pays to have a flexible mind. I thought I would check in to your blog site to see what it was like cycling around South America and what experiences you are enjoying to be greeted by a dissatation of what it is like to be riding around the UK!! It looks like a great way to spend a year all the same.
That's travel: perfect one day - ugh the next! Dear Dave and Claire,
Hope you and bikes are well on your way by now. Enoyed reading about the Fosse Way etc - brought back memories. Looking forward to the next section, love Graham and Monique

Where's the news? No updates since the start of August? We're dying for news, get some written now. :)) How was the flight during all the security clampdowns, how's Cuba, was Switzerland good? News, News News!
I knew you could do it Well, its been an eventful two weeks for you both, I always knew you'd return to Nottingham one day, it was fortunate to find the Robin Hood Festival being held in Sherwood Forest whilst you were here, I know that was a bonus. pity about the travel restrictions now in force, hope everything goes well, God speed on your journey love Mum
Malmesbury Abbey Good photos Claire! Have you heard Nicole's song about a monk who flew from the top of Malmesbury Abbey? He made it quite a long way, flying on wings of leather and only broke a leg. Apparently the abbot forbade him from a second attempt. He maintained that he needed a tail for steering -- only look at the birds! Unfortunately the song's not on their latest album, but if you see Nic at all, get her to sing it to you. The weather looks faboulous, lucky you! Big love to the Levick family.
wow !! Hi Claire (and Dave)
I am so jealous , what an amazing trip,
The oldest Pub in UK looks great...what beer did you have ?
Can't wait to see some more stuff
Love

Blog Journal Hiya Dave and Claire - great to see your blogsite and you're in the UK already. Becky and I are looking forward to seeing you very soon :)
Good luck!
In July 2006, having packed up our homes and jobs, sold the children and robbed the bank, we left Australia for a year-long cycling and hiking (and mountain climbing) adventure, mostly in South America, via Cuba. Since then, we've been plotting how to do this again. Until it comes off we've made the most of what opportunities have come our way for smaller trips.... full info
