Countdown -4

So the days continue to recede, small items of necessity like cycling shorts have been washed, dried and added to my ever growing pile of kit.

Emails have been sent to all my daily contacts informing them of my absence and act of lunacy.

The weather continues to toy with my planning, and my kind sponsors continue to come forward with promises of cold hard cash.

Hopefully my bike will be ready tomorrow and then I can begin the finishing touches of preparation.

Till then I can think of only one sensible plan, practice the mantra, "I am taking each stage one day at a time", have a preparatory beer and sleep till the dawn of a new day!
