Welcome to Daves Travel Pages

Dave briggs

My name is Dave Briggs, and thank you for visiting my travelogue site. I've always had a wanderlust, and about thirteen years ago, I put my dreams into reality with my first around the world trip which lasted for 15 months. Since then, I have become a regular traveller, only coming back to England to work for six months or so, before returning to the road with the money that I have saved. Each trip I undertake has some theme, from tours of archaeological ruins in South America to experiencing India on the railways. I've slowly transformed from backpacker to adventure cyclist, and my last trip was cycling from England to Cape Town. At the moment, i am planning my next trip, which is to cycle from Alaska to Argentina, starting in July 2009.

 

 The plan is quite simple - Ride a bicycle from Alaska to Argentina. I will leave in July 2009, and am estimating that it will take a year and a half of cycling to reach the southern most point of Argentina. Daves Travel Pages will be updated once a week with news on my preparations, so be sure to keep coming back to davestravelpages.com.

The website is very easy to navigate. Over on the left hand side, you will see a couple of menus, so just click away until you get to where you want! Each new article I write, will feature here on the front page, until I write another one that will replace it. All the articles are located in this travelogue.

I was up and out early on the bike this morning, despite having a few pints of 'Waggle Dance' the night before with Mum and Dad. It was misty this morning, but still quite humid. I did my two laps of the reservoir with loaded trailer and was back home for 09.30.

I've packed away the remaining stuff I have, and Mum and Dad collected it this afternoon. That all my worldy belongings that I am not taking on the trip fit in the boot of a very small car is quite amusing. 

I found this on the internet... has she got a great voice or what??
