Travelling the world by bicycle, moaning about it and drinking lots of beer along the way.

We started our bike journey in May 2022 and were on the road for two years, before a few months hiatus in the UK. We set off again in April 2025, and we have no plans yet to stop cycling. So far we’ve cycled in 37 countries, across Europe, Turkey, South East Asia, Australia, Nepal, North Africa and China. We have also tried over 300 different beers on the way.

We’re currently in Germany, cycling across Europe but following a different route than we’ve done before.

The latest rubbish I have written about

Cruel Summer
The joy of cycling through Europe in another heatwave, and wondering where the Balkans begin.

The Only Way Is Up
The biggest challenge of the year so far is crossing Switzerland. Expect complaining.
