It is about the bike

Thursday, 28 June 2007

Lance Armstrong famously said it's not about the bike.  But that's because he had one.  When you're travelling, it's first about you getting there and a very close second, the bike getting there. 

Unfortunately this time my bike got lost.  Well not lost.  It's doing the flying equivalent of taking a very circuitous route choice and making a few big hesitations along the way. 

So I'm still waiting nervously for a call or knock on the door to herald the arrival of a very big grey bag with my lovely bike.  Then I can start to enjoy the local forests which surround the south of Prague where I'm staying and start my build up for WOC.
