The past fortnight has been a bit of a blur and i humbly apologise for not writing last week. Excuses excuses i know, but I've got a good one, truly.
The first week was spent in the wonderfully relaxed environs of the Margaret River with The Lovely Samantha and her family. An incredible house made the horrible weather bearable and the nice wines made the time fly much too quick. Bodhi was beside himself with the kangaroos that would hop in from the surrounding bush to breakfast on the lawn beside the living room.
Ridiculously early Monday morning i boarded a flight from Perth to Adelaide to take my place in the support crew for Gary Harvey who was attempting to raise money for The Smith Family by cycling from Sydney to Perth just so that he could then cycle to Melbourne to take part in his tenth "Around the Bay in a Day" charity ride. Scary how humble, selfless and machine like this guy is. He's been an inspiration to be around.
Being around him has also had other benefits. I've been the unofficial photographer on the ride and man have i been licking my lips at the scenery. It's something I've dreamt about for quite a while to travel around this country with a camera and now I'm getting paid (well...my expenses anyway) to do it.
Shalome - This guy is incredible. Failing a hurricane blowing from Melbourne to Sydney, we'll be there Friday night for the Sunday charity ride. Get your party blouse ready.
see ya,
Minas.
