Welcome to onebikeoneworld, an account of my latest adventure, a trip around the world by bicycle. The trip started on April 27th 2011 when I flew from the UK to Tampa, Florida and will end, hopefully before my bank runs dry, in New Zealand sometime in the future. The first day of cycling was back on May 11th 2011 the day after C had arrived when we headed out in to the unknown.
I intend to ride on 6, and maybe even all 7, of the continents and through an unknown number of countries. Beyond the first few months it’s a very open road and the goal is to enjoy myself and see as much of what the world has to offer.
This website is to let me have an easy way to keep in touch with friends and family, to ease the fears of those who worry about me, to help me organise my thoughts on the trip and to hopefully help others who may want to do something similar in the future.
Current progress (simplified to load faster and so about 10% shorter than actual route)
