Just seen this, explains a few things haha.

Good on you for going for it! I've been out once as part of a big rugby tour in college, weather wasn't great for us but I do remember it being scenic nonetheless. Can't remember much as it was a while ago and it was a bunch of rugby lads being very laddish for a week... I'd appreciate it far more these days!

Have a blast :thumbup:

Critics corner here.

That site could do with updating. At first I thought it was based on the Twitter bootstrap but after a look at the code it's not. It's a bit old school based on the Protype framework, non responsive, and a bit slow and sluggish being so code heavy. And that is with me disabling your Google Analytics, (which should be at the bottom the page not the top by the way) Google adwords conversion, Google platform, Facepoop connect and Live chat. So lord knows how sluggish it would be with that lot switched on. There's way too much content on there and it's not easy to navigate IMO. Nice logo and colour scheme though. :beer:

That's a coincidence Rob, I'm hoping to bring my bike with me, tour for a couple of months then sell it.

Do you know many people who have explored by bike?
