As Mikes editor I must appologise for the mess up of this page during today. I think that it is now returned to normality, but at least I now know that operating a computer after drinking beer is a bad idea. Frank

Can't wait to see you on saturday. Missing you so much this week. Glad your having a good time. Aiden can't wait to see his grandad. Love you be careful xxx

Onya, Mike. I'm still reading from down here in the Land of Oz.

It seems that your knee's sorted and you're making good progress.

I am impressed with the results of your 'considerate motorists' survey. It's great to know that most drivers seem to treat cyclists with respectful safety clearances.

Hi Mike

Frank you are doing a grand job of Mikes blog even after beer!!! Glad to read in your blog that everything is going well and the weather is being kind to you. Its also good to read that even at your age you can still attract attention even if it is from a sworm of flies!! Ive looked forward to reading your blog evey day to see where your up to. Keep up the hard work and im sure your will finish the ride with pride and some energy left. P.S Nigel Rio Coker has signed for us.Enjoy.

Hi Mike

Blog is awesome, hughly descriptive which is great! I know the west of scotland area very well being as I was brought up there, to read your blog really 'takes me home!'

On your final day, I think we are only a few miles from you (camping) if you are travelling down the A30 in the vicinity of Hayle? If so maybe we could meet for brew or a little light libation?

Keep pedalling Mike, doing a grand job
All the best

Hi Mike, Seem's like you are on target and you are enjoying all the hard work,glad to see the weather & the senery are good even the fly's are being kind to you. Our team is doing very well at the moment, even put one over our jinx team Bury let's hope they carry it on into the season. Keep up the good work John & Betty

Awright Mike,
I've said it before but it has to be said again. Huge respect mate! Just to sample a little bit of what you must be feeling I decided to cycle to work every day this week. Only half the mileage, per day, you are doing. Last night I felt like I had been put through a mangle (remember them). I felt much better today, though. It's quite strange how one day you are absolutely knackered then the next you feel fine, just as you have been saying. You must be going through some tough times, especially with being on your own, keep going mate.
Sorry I can't meet up on Saturday to do a stage as I am off to see my daughter in London. Good timing on my part eh? Remember when you pass Ewood, to tip your cycle helmet.

Hi Mike,
Just got back from holidays and had the email from Sue for your blog. Had a few giggles at some of the events that have already taken place. Hope the scraps arent too bad from your fall. Where abouts are you passing through Stoke on Trent we can come and cheer you on. If you need an overnight stop you are more than welcome to stop here. Hot food available. Keep up the good work and see you soon.

Zdravo, htio sam znati vašu cijenu.

Here's Johnny!
