Along the way
Dave,
I would think that if you are the type of person who would do a long distance bike trip that you would have better luck finding a partner along way. I know that I always meet really interesting people when I travel.
And I take back my comment above about coming back to London and settling down. I was just excited about getting to three dates with a bloke before he came up with the excuse that we have different goals in life. Fair enough when I have my trip coming up but I have heard that reason before from guys and it surprises me as other than a few ideas about finishing my pilots license and building a glass eco-home in the bush I am pretty open to doing anything given that it is interesting.
btw - I have decided to take the easier option and start my trip in Argentina and not until nov/dec as I have to start saving again after investing in a restaurant so if you are travelling though Turkey near the Aegean Islands you could stop in Alaçati do some kite/wind surfing and pop in to see my business partner and convince her that long distance biking isn't insane. I was going to mention that she is gorgeous, single and can cook - but I don't want you to get the wrong idea about the type of business we are running ;-)
Good luck on your travels!
