Just a quick note to say that after ten months, I've finally made it to Cape Town!! I'd just like to thank everybody who kept in touch and offered advice. Time for a beer now!

I opened thorntree for a friend just now, saying, "The biking page is interesting but it's almost all questions from people who are PLANNING a long-distance trip... you never see people on this site who have actually done their big trips..."
congratulations, that's amazing!

There are plenty of folk who have done their big trips you daft cow - now get out of here.....

Excellent Dave! Well done!!
As Maenad said, not often that you get people on this site that has actually finished a trip.
Listen, I'm a journalist at a paper here in Cape Town, we would like to have an interview with you before you leave. So, if you could contact us/let us know where you're staying, it would help.
Thanks

Again, what is this shit? Plenty, plenty people on here who have done superb trips, and come on again and again to offer advice where required. I don't understand how you think like that?
Tart.
