Thursday 5/5/05
Got up and rode 15miles out of Hutchinson to another town called Nickerson where we had lunch and pie in the Sunshine Cafe. There were no services at all from here to our destination Larned, so we picked up a few snacks and headed off down the single straight 60 mile road to Larned. Roads like that are really boring, we saw about 2 houses the whole way. We've found the only way to stay entertained on a ride like that is to play the alphabet game and 20 questions. Got to Larned about 5pm and the sun was blazing. Setup camp in the RV park and met a couple called John and Mary Landis who had parked up they're RV for the night next to where we were camping. We got chatting to them and they invited us to join them for dinner. We had a great meal with them and spent the rest of the night chatting away. Its great to meet people like John and Mary - it makes the trip so much more enjoyable.

Yep,
You guessed, still not studying, sounds all good from your end. I finish uni in 3 days!!!! Well I can be honest and say that was the biggest waste of the last four years of my life! And I dont think I will get a bad grade either, just dont think its all its cracked up to be. Dont think any of us lot have done anythin too astounding with it. Some of those photos look ace, anyway, keep up the good work, I'll give you some sponsorship when you get back, when I have a job in a call centre,

or tell a lie, instead of a call centre, could get a job at Peugot, now there's something to look forward to!

I am enjoying seeing what you are both getting up to, looks like you are covering the ground well. So maybe you will have some freetime near the end? Is that the plan. Take care, and keep the photos going. Love Sharon & Ian.
For Alex,
You mare now an uncle for the second time! Daniel Benedict Freeman arrived on Sunday 8th at 08.16p.m.
You can send a text message to Caroline. I have been trying to phone you but could not get through, you can text me as well.

To Alex & Mark,
Here is the cheque (£50) as promised. We are keeping up with your progress on the website and I'm sending regular updates to Mum too. Glad to hear it's going OK.
Happy pedalling.
