Sunday 5th June 2011.
Hi Folks, sorry for the delay in postings and pics lately. Some of the last hotels with not so reliable internet or wireless connectivity... Anyway 'SuperEuroride 2011' was duly completed yesterday ! Very pleased to have done it and finished it... and I am now somewhat tired but rapt! So all up to complete SuperEuroride, I rode 2490 kilometres over 18 stages at an all up average speed of 26.1 kmph. Total riding time was just on 95 hours and 5 mins. I punctured four times. Total ride elevation was just on 33,000 metres. Wore out one full set of brake blocks and 1 set of my Michelin road tyres. And pleasingly did not get sick once. Many did.
Now we (Carol & I) are in Bern, Switzerland staying with our Swiss friends, the Messerli's and getting some R & R in and a bit of great sightseeing at the same in this beautiful country. On Tuesday we travel to Paris and then on to London. The real holiday part of this long trip has started. The bike is packed back up again now and tomorrow Monday it will be airfreighted back done-under to Melbourne. Talk again soon. Cheers, John M. :-)
