Cycling To The Ashes 
Good luck I will be watching for you and constantly wishing you well.
Barmy Ary or what!!
hmm, is this how to communicate with you? not really sure how this blogging business works. is everyone out there going to be able to read this? better not say anything controversial just in case. anyway, already enjoying your updates and i just wanted to say… GO OLI GO! xxx
A very happy new year which as you will have heard was celebrated here in some style by the usual group of renegades,led of course by your folks.Silly games at 2.30am ,and the fact that people were staying the night ment that some heads have only just recovered. I am sure an athelete like you was more sensible! Glad you are getting towards tshirt territory,keep peddling LOL S and S
Fella, looks like your doing well. Ive had a crap time of it recently and havent been able to cycle, but wish I was in your shoes now. Keep it going, dont let the hard times sway you because you will look back on them as some of the best times!
Good luck!!!
p.s how the trainers that I sold you doing?haha
Hı mate…! traıners stıll goıng…have barely taken them off for 3 months now…! What happened wıth your trıp? Are you ınjured? Bad luck….back on the road soon? Hope all good mate and let me know ıf youre anywhere near me. wıll take a look at your sıte too!
Corr blimey they must stink by now!well I decided to hitch hike in India for a section of dangerous roads. When I got off to collect my luggage, 4 bags had disappeared. So I have to rebuild my equipment before I can get back on the road. Might fly to Australia later this summer, maybe see you around!!!!
Keep them wheels turning!
Oli,
YOU ARE LIVING! I sit here in Ingleby Trice Towers in exactly the same place I was when you started this adventure, it’s depressing to think how little i’ve achieved in that time and how much you’ve done so keep it up! Your writing and the photographs are absolutely fantastic! I hope you’re as proud and pleased with what you are doing as I am impressed by it. I’ve just come back form a week skiing with Lamby and we toasted your health on several occassions.
I’m riding a motorbike across india in from the 11th – 27th september, I’m going the opposite direction to you but if you’re that way then give me a heads up and I’ll make a detour to find you, also let me know in advance if their is anything you’re craving and I’ll bring it or leave it along the way.
WELL DONE OLI!
Just stumbled upon your site…very impressed..and inspired! Good luck man..may catch you at WACA…will be watching out for you. Many dream of racing the sun…but only a few actually run;o)
Good luck for the final part of this amazing journey – what you set out to achieve is amazing, and more to the point, I am so jealous that you will be at an Ashes game. Take care across NT, it’s a weird and wonderful place.
Keep pedalling(and mind the crocs)
Cracking work Oli, enjoying these updates from the safety of North London. I am at the MCG on the 28th Dec and then onto Sydney to see Straussy lift the urn – I hope you arent too saddle sore to meet up for a beer?!
BVDG – cheers for getting in touch mate! i’ll be there for a beer, Melbourne and Sydney…..look forward to that. I’m meeting your bro-in-law in Perth too….
Hi ollie, just checking in mate to see how your cycling? Wheres the photos of us leaving heartbreak? we were thinking of writing on the road:” keep pedeling Richie, Show us ya ticka”. We ate that magpie goose & crab on the way home & are havin a bbq to cook up the barra we cought thisweekend….. hope to see you in our town, Coonabarabran n.s.w.. The fishen crew.
Good luck for the end. I’ve enjoyed following your travels.
