Hello! It’s been some time since the last update…welcome back. I’ve been quiet for the last year but expect that to end now. I’m heading off on another cycle tour so there should be plenty of updates in the coming months.
I wont be solo touring this time. I’m travelling with a friend, Finnian Flood. We’re going to be heading off from our home city of Dublin and cycling a meandering route to Nepal. We’ve given ourselves a year to do it and leave in four days time, heading off to Wales to ride across the UK – a fairly gentle introductory leg to our trip. After the UK we’ll take a ferry into France and from there ride through Belgium, Germany, Austria, Slovenia and Croatia. From Croatia we turn inland again through Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Bulgaria, Turkey, Georgia and Azerbaijan. By now Europe is behind us and we will be crossing Iran, Afghanistan and Pakistan before entering China and our destination of Nepal.
At least, that’s the plan. You never really know how these trips will go but we’ll be following this general guideline. So expect more updates in the future. For now I’ve got a bit more last minute prep to get through. I’d like to give a more detailed itinerary but…well we don’t really have on. A general outline is all we really need to get going and once you’re going, well, its kinda hard to turn back.
Good Luck Hugo .You should write a book like Michael Palin Richard
Hey Hugo, it’s nice to see you on the road again! Your last trip was an inspiration for me, and I’ve got a good friend in France that would be very interested in your specific trip this time.
