Odds and ends from around the internet that have caught my eye.
- An interesting photographic journey similar to my M25 walk.
- Dean Dunbar (blind and stupid*) is planning to swim to France. Impressive!
- Find – a beautiful mountain bike film
- The Wilderness Beneath your Feet
- Often “good enough” is good enough. Maximum efficiency, minimum effort
- Video intro to an interesting year-long bike journey, Cycling Silk
- Ski lifts, Afghanistan style
- Are you tapping companies up for gear sponsorship? Then read this
- 66 ultramarathons, 66 cities, 66 days. Wow
- Quirky, interesting bike ephemera. Four round the world cyclists speak
*-his words, not mine!
If you are organising an event or an expedition you would like sharing in the In Brief section please send me a one-line summary and link, ideally two months in advance.
First time I’ve come across the Brooks Bugle which is a really neat little publication. I’ve been reading your blog for a while now and have always been impressed with you way with words. The piece you wrote in the Bugle continues in this vein. I liked in particular your reference to the false perception of a small world and the ‘smells’ analogy that one experiences when on the road.
this might be of interest to you Al.
