Thought I'd finally register and get chatting, although I've been reading the forum for a while now.
Bit about me - Helen, 28, currently living near Slough.
I'm an enthusiastic mountain biker but going to give touring a proper go... Quitting work to cycle 20,000 or so km to South Africa.
Went for a ride up in the Wirral at the weekend, got a puncture and a friendly passing cyclist fixed it for me, which was kind since I didn't have a repair kit or pump with me. Think I'll need to be better prepared for the big trip!
Hoping in two years time, I'll be able to say 'Hi' from Cape Town and offer advice here rather than be requesting it!
Have set up a website which I'll be updating along the way if you're interested in following my progress: www.takeonafrica.com - I leave in July...
Cheers.
