How kind of you, Jane! I’m so glad it lands. I’m finding writing a very helpful mental occupation while doing some more physical sabbatical-ing! I’m allowing a slight idea of some journalism to brew... I’ll make some concrete steps over the Christmas break before kicking off Phase 2 in January. Your encouragement is so appreciated.
I may need to rethink the last 20 years, start a campsite, have more children then open a bikeshop......clearly more effective than my weak attempts at self-improvement by meditation.
Thanks for the shout-out, Jake! I don't feel plagiarised, and if I've provided the smallest bit of inspiration, I'm honoured. Carry on...
Jake you write SO BEAUTIFULLY
Reading your accounts of this wonderful and somewhat wet adventure is like dancing along on a bicycle with you. You are a literary alchemist
Thankyou thankyou, Peer of the pedals

An new BG value?!
As a leading producer of verse
I assure you you could do much worse
Than churning out limricks
(MIne sold out like hotbricks)
Being solemn is truly a curse.
I’m godson to such a producer
Of poems, rhymes, lines that enduce a
Sense of weaving like snakes
With a slick flow that makes
His verse seem like the hair of Medusa
Your very good health sir! I like
The cut of your jib. Your rhymes strike
All your readers with awe.
Please write a lot more
As you zoom further south on your bike!

I think Erwin’s philosophy is malleable enough to cover a kitchen garden... better late than never, eh?!
And are you going to be a journalist in your next job? You could command fabulous fees you know
Ps
You could also have described Karel's bike as rather like a large plastic banana
Now that’s a far more eloquent description... with this, I could’ve omitted the picture, I’m sure!
