John musing on:
John cycled in:
- Devon, The Lake District, The Orkneys and London (Summer 2003).
- Bavaria, Baden-Wurtembourg, Strasbourg and London again (Autumn).
- Miami, Boynton Beach, The Kennedy Space Centre and Epcot (November).
- Auckland, Thames, Napier and Wellington (December).
- Every nook of South Island (well nearly) (2004).
- Wanganui, Taranaki, King Country, Northland and Auckland again.
John spoke from:
- Kaikoura on the north east coast of South Island in this rather tedious 15 minute mumbled dispatch
- Taupo (central North island) in this blissfully short (7 min) not so secret report
John carried on cycling:
- Around the capitals of NSW, ACT, VIC, SA and WA in Australia.
- Through numerous towns in between.
- In the South African provinces of Gauteng, Free State, KZN and Eastern and Western Cape
- Between family and friends (or former friends) in Alsace, Baden Wurtemburg and Bavaria
- From Madrid to the southern coast of Spain during the winter of 2004/2005.
The bicycle and John then returned to England for repairs and regrets after the cock-up of the year in Andalucia. Largely recovered he then set of again:
- From London to Gleneagles with the motley anarchists and peaceniks of the G8 bikeride
- To a laughable job interview at CAT in West Wales via (rather circuitously) unearthed friends in Sheffield and Lincolnshire
- To New York in search of relatives (2006)
- Back to London in search of love
- To Asturias in search of a home (2007/8)
- Back to England in need of a rest
- To the family home in need of inspiration (2008)
