Amanda is our resident pedaller, who loves the climbs as much as the descents. No genre of biking is turned down, though she is happiest when at the top of a mountain with a wild descent ahead of her. If you ever want a chat about concussion recovery, dealing with a Womb of Doom or how best to fuel an endurance XC race, she's the one to email.

    Good days follow bad ones. Random 4×4 pics? Cheap house prices. Luv quirky accommodation, always provides a good story to tell later.

    @hightensionline You haven’t, I’ve just received a nudge and I’m getting the photos ready for the remainder of the trip. Honestly I didn’t expect this diary to be so popular and had it as a low priority task, and somehow a full month has gone by! Apologies, and stand by…
