Hello!
I looked through the other brits a while back and don't know any of them. I'm sure we'll get to know each other a bit in Banff anyhow. I'm feeling as good about it as I can at this point. Building up the same kind of confidence as I had for the Ultrasport: I know I'm going to be able to give it a decent shot. There are things I can't control that could stop me from finishing, but I've got the things I can control nailed down.
Hats off to Steve Wilkinson, his story is good and he dropped me a line to see if he could offer me any advice. At the moment he's among the people I owe an email! More early mornings sorting stuff before work, then!
I'm leaving on Sunday, then riding from Calgary to Banff for the start with another racer. To say it's exciting is an understatement!
Edit: Oh, yeah… there's a new blog post about my Welsh end-to-end just published now.
