The trip begins: Kinnaur, Himachal Pradesh

One day in Delhis chaotic belly was enough, and the city was in floods after a typical monsoonal downpour – we headed swiftly out on a ‘luxury’ bus for Shimla in the foothills of the himalayas .






- Friendly Kinnauri ladies on the way up offered me water and aples from their fanatastic hillside orchards

- through pine, cedar, rhododendron and spruce forests


- A typical ‘in and out’ along a valley – we can see the road we are to ride on the otherside

Pedaling has been natural to me since the tender age of three. Cycling is practical, fun, it gets you to the corner café, across countries, continents, keeps you fit and is by far the most efficient and environmentally friendly transport option around, being virtually carbon neutral.
I live in Howick, KwaZulu-Natal which is great cycling country, within 10 minutes I can be bouncing along some of the finest single tracks in the province.

Hi Bridget, Carlos and Ben Wow great pictures! I wish you all a great and safe trip. Enjoy, Brett
I am so proud of you! Keep climbing higher up the peaks of enlightenment. It looks so stunning.
Wish i was 30 years younger and joining you on the trip. All strength to your little legges!
Bridget,Carlosand Ben Totally Awesome - the views must be the reward for the punishing climb 1445m to 2900m over 35 kilometres, I admire the fact that you could do it so heavily laden to boot - I see Carlos nogal had a laden Duffel bag up rear!!
