Dave briggs

My name is Dave Briggs, and welcome to www.davestravelpages.com , my travelogue site. I am an Adventure Cyclist from England, and my latest trip is to cycle from Alaska to Argentina. I started in July 2009, and estimate that it will take 18 months, so please drop by again to check on my progress !

To read my current travelogue, use this link Alaska to Argentina., or simply have a look around the site to see my previous adventures, thoughts and views. The site is bigger than you might think, so put the kettle on, relax, and enjoy !



 Bali, Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, Los Angeles

April 1997 - July 1998

This is the trip which gave me a taste for travel! Myself and Andrea (my girlfriend of the time), had a week in Bali, then we went to Australia where we bought a car, and spent ten months driving the whole way around. (Yes, we did the bit in the middle as well!). Due to a currency collapse, we ended up with more money than we thought we would have. In New Zealand, we hired a car, and drove around seeing all the major sights of interest. A lovely three week holiday in Fiji afterwards, followed by a week in Los Angeles and then back home again. This travelogue will be updated in full eventually (theres a lot of work there, and I currently don't have time, what with cycling to South Africa and everything)


 
Travel Quotes

“Of the gladdest moments in human life, me thinks, is the departure upon a distant journey into unknown lands.
Shaking off with one mighty effort the fetters of Habit, the leaden weight of Routine, the cloak of many Cares and the slavery of Home, one feels more happy.
The blood flows with the fast circulation of childhood…
A journey, in fact, appeals to Imagination, to Memory, to Hope - the three sister graces of our moral being.”

- Sir Richard Francis Burton, 1856
