The sun has finally hit my corner of the UK. The bikes are out and the legs have been unwrapped. Those of you that pledged for extra rewards like posters and cds and caps etc, you should have them through your letterbox by now (might be a little longer for overseas). Please do get in touch with Unbound if you haven’t received them yet. I’ve been on the first of the “Gospel Pass” rides with some of those who pledged for the bike ride and we had an ace day rolling up and down in the Welsh Hills fuelled by flapjacks and port (!). Thanks to all who pledged and went on the ride.

To update you on the book. I’m in the process of finishing the draft manuscript so it can enter the editing process. Writing it has been quite an adventure, an equal in some ways to the bike ride to India; thirty chapters and each one with a different philosophy, mechanical explanation and narrative link, and each to be hand illustrated with the bike part in question. Thank you for your patience. I think it will be a very special book, quite unlike anything you’ve read.
We’ll continue to update you on its progress to physical form and in the meantime, I hope to give subscribers an “added extra”. Keep an eye on your inboxes and happy cycling.
