That’s a wrap for us, Linda and I are home safe and sound.

Thank you to everyone for your kind words and support over the last 5 1/2 months, it’s really been very much appreciated.

A big thank you to Paul Oxborough from Mental Health Motorbike here in the UK, a charity we have been proud to be associated with throughout the trip. Black Dog Ride were the cause we supported in Australia and they are two very similar charities, both doing great work to promote good mental health.

One of the reasons for us going on an adventure like this was to help Linda get over the death of her parents, so good mental health has been at the forefront of our minds while we’ve been away. Paul has always been there with supportive emails and we look forward to continuing to work with the charity now we are home.

Travelling through Germany, we were due to stay in the historic town of Potsdam and made a small detour to Berlin and to the house where Linda was born and lived for the first 4 years of her life. This was quite an emotional moment for her and a nice memory of her Mum & Dad.

The trip will definitely have an effect on me too I’m sure, but I don’t know how yet. One result I would like to see is for me to be less driven to achieve/do things and to be able to relax a bit more. I would like to sleep in when I want to sleep in, have days away when I want days away and maybe have a glass of wine or two watching an old black & white film of an afternoon, bliss!

I’m sure events, people we’ve met and places we’ve visited will occur to us over the next few months and we will post again when they do.

So that’s it, thanks again everyone,
