Our day off!Up a 9 which was nice. Spent the morning trying to attatch Alex's chain until realising the tool was broken and having to get a new one. When that was done at midday we found that the cassette needed replacing to as it was worn out by the over-stretched chain not a good day. However we are going to see star wars later, and we have another planned day off on the Nevada border casino RV resort in two days so its not all gloomy. Oh and guess who turned up today? Yup Babs and Bob the German couple again. Oh yeah did i mention we are travelling the lonliest highway in the USA through a Barren hot dessert doing more than 400 miles in 7 days, we gotta to rest up.

Alright Boys,
just to let you know liverpool won the european cup. Went to watch it with kang and he was nearly crying when liverpool were down 3-0 at half time, but they won on pens after scoring 3 times in 6 minutes in the seconf half, the best game i've seen in ages (except Covs last game at highfield road!). Kylie has canceled glasto and they want to replace her with the killers which will be S"*%, I'm still holding out for clapton to play (not a chance. anyway back to work. laters

Wow, it's some distance you've covered so far! I'm just about to go see the England 'B' team destroy the USA.
Cheers for keeping us all updated on the ride, we have all been checking in often to see how you have been doing, i'm sure you'll both have hundreds of stories to entertain us with when you get back!
Looking forward to seeing you both after Glasto. Take care.
Dear Alex and Mark,
You will be seriously fit(or knackered) after all these miles, a good start to university / working life!!! Mum and Dad are helping me out with Daniel over the bank holiday. Can't wait to catch up with all your adventures in person. Enjoy San Francisco - a wonderful city just like in the movies. love Caroline XXX

Keep going lads..
Bongo; might have a (loan-er) spare ticket for you to go to the 'Glade' festival, my mate couldn't go and i'm mailing people to see who wants it. The Glade festival is basically a festival (in its 3rd year now) dedicated to the insane electronica/trance/dnb/raver music found every year at the Glade stage in Glasto. Lineup includes Aphex Twin/ Squarepusher/ Aphrodite/ Mickey Finn etc...
Keep it REAL

Nil I'd be up for that man! Just tell me when and how much and I'll be there. Thanks for posting on the site, you'll have to send your e-mail address to the google account sometime. Heard from any of the boys at uni recently? None of them have posted yet, your the only one. Cheers dude
