Hi everyone - I suppose you're all asleep now - it's nearly 3 pm in Oslo where I'm at the internet cafe in the train station. I get to Vancouver tomorrow night for a ride down to San Diego on my (t)rusty steed, an 18 year old 753 road racer built by Condor of London, with 6 speed Dura Ace. (Anyone here old enough to remember when gear levers were on the downtube?) It would be great to meet a fellow cyclist or two along the way, otherwise I suppose I won't be interacting with anyone but gas station attendants and hotel clerks. So let me know if you want to meet for tea and cakes - that's what British cyclists do! I've just spent a month touring in Norway, doing the fjords and the arctic circle and the Lofoten Islands...the usual thing. Hoping that the West Coast will be just as good!
