And so Bo leaves the sandpit...

And so Bo leaves the sandpit and begins to write a few lines as he sits in the Dasman Lounge having flashed his cancelled Diners Club card, fooling the old fashioned carbon copy slider, waiting for plane to board.  Ahh, the sandpit – will you be missed?

Those that Bo leaves behind will be missed.  A quick round of phone calls saying goodbye, promises made to ride again somewhere  around the world, already seem a distant memory but they are pledges to be kept.  And so is the commitment of the regular postings which has not been maintained this year.  Internet access is not yet confirmed at l’etoile filante and so maybe the posts will be uploaded on bulk, but regardless, Bo in Europe is the next chapter...
A promise has been made to write up Kuwait’s BIG Ride – I will give it some thought and it may read well written in hindsight as I recall the 250km’s in the sandpit...

But it is to the future that Bo now looks.  A busy summer awaits with plenty of events and fantastic training to look forward to...
For now, some African cycling passed to me to view but now for me to share...  It does get me thinking about Africa...
