CONGRATULATIONS!

Well done the three of you!
Sheila and I are very proud of you and so glad that we could help. It seems like only yesterday we waved you off round that first bend at the trailhead in Banff (after you'd found the right one)! It's alright for you, Cennydd and Hywel; at least you can hang up your bikes and drive where you need to go. Poor Chris still has to saddle up if he wants to get anywhere!
Straight off the tops of your heads: if you wrote a book about the trip, what would you call it?
A lot of our workmates here followed the trip with great interest, envy and awe.
Well done again.
P.S. Where to next? Cairo to Capetown??

Book titles? :

'This wasn't on the profile!'

'You guys are crazier than hell!'

'Washboard for beginners'

'Are we nearly there yet?'

'The Big Book of North American Roadkill'

'It's a 1!' - a travellers guide to North American Restrooms

'The New(er) Testament' - Hywel figured that this would be good for book sales.


Next trip? - We have something brewing. Watch this space :)

...you're going to cycle down to Mumbles, grab a joe's ice cream and then cycle back again, surely?

Hi, great blog, thanks!! My girlfriend and I are going to do the Great Divide next year 2009. Can you please tell me what front racks you used on your bikes? I see two of the three of you used front racks. Any chance of a bit of a gear list? Thanks in advance, Scott in New Zealand!
