VCT Day minus 26

Each time I fill in the title for the new blog I become increasingly excited at how quickly the time between now and when we get to ride the roads of Vietnam is reducing. At the same time, I'm getting increasingly nervous at how quickly the time between now and when we get to ride the roads of Vietnam is reducing!

Neither Tony nor I want to become known as the "bus conductor" and we're determined to ride all day, every day on the tour. That's possible if we can get out and do some more training, but this current setback means that it has been more than a week since I've been on a bike (didn't think I'd hear myself talking about how much I missed the exercise. Thanks to Lucy Brown from Northcott and our own Katie from Inspired Adventures for their kind wishes regarding my little, ahem, medical problem.

Meanwhile, some great people are continuing to support our efforts to get to that $10,000 mark, with Kathryn Thorne ($100), Jodie Sinclair ($100), Barbara Perry ($50), Pter Shelley ($50), and Jacqueline Bracey ($50) the latest to join the gang. With that $350, we are now up to (drum roll) $8,922.39! Not bad for a couple of old blokes, eh?
