Well, looks like Gordy will be off on his challenge tomorrow- Wednesday- the weather has been really bad and unfortunately the wind very strong @ 50-70mph here lately. It does not seem to be improving too much in the next few days which will make his cycle even harder when the wind is against him!!(as if it won't be hard enough!?).Anyway, he has his kit bag all packed and the contents weighed to death, and is also using a very small bag attached to his seat post (as in training the weight of his bag was giving him lower back pain after @ 60 miles). Only the absolute essentials are going! So with the wind behind him tomorrow he will be heading off to Belfast-Carrickfergus-Larne-Ballycastle-Portrush and finally to Portstewart. I am sure you are with me when I wish him a safe journey and the kids and I will really miss him! I will have to resist phoning him as he cannot keep stopping etc, so I have been told I can phone early a.m or after 7pm. But I am sure he will be calling me on his breaks to let me know how it is going and give me the craic! So I will update this blog whenever I hear some news!! Bye for now.
