Folks, John had to pedal so much , but Sheri's work was not a bit easier! She was determined, kept her track and SHE WON! Congratulations Sheri - Rockhobbit! You not only were determined, but you carefully read all the clues I gave during the contest. 1847 it is! Well, it's 1846.5, but as I told you before you only had to guess the entire miles. Thank you everyone for participating, I was glad to give John a helping hand in his contest, now let's hope he will show up to let us know he's OK. Adrian PS. Here's the proof:  |

Well done Sheri. Congratulations.
John by my reckoning that means you've covered about 2500 miles by now. That is truly admirable.

Well, if John didn't give up pedaling, it would be pitty for you folks to give up guessing, right now when the finish line is in sight.  Adrian Adrian, I didn't give up pedaling, and I still haven't (though I have felt like it on more than one occasion). I took a wrong turning about 500 miles ago and am now in ...... Hahaha, yeah, like I'm likely to tell you. Things are getting a little worse now. Seems the mountain ranges I had to struggle earlier in the journey were just testers compared to the ones coming up. Coming into the 1500 - 2000 metre range now. Weather is fantastic. Views/scenery absolutely amazing, and the people I have met and shared times with have etched little notches on my heart. Have recently passed my last target, and I have to admit that I really did start crying when I got to the landmark that marked my point. It was a truely emotionally event, to realise and understand just what I have managed in such a short time. Have been pushing myself far too hard - research shows that average time to reach landmark is 120+ days, I have nearly reached burn out on more than one occasion and have done it in less than 70, and used a longer roundabout route. Sincere and humble thanks to Adrian to keeping the interest up in this competition. Congrats to Jo - Naturenut, and Sheri - Rockhobbit for your fantastic efforts and work in guessing the correct answers. If you could both please pm me with your addresses I'll get the wraps posted to you as soon as I can. Can't promise when you will receive them, but I can guarantee that they will be sent as soon as I can find out what the word is for post office in THIS country. LOL. Heck, I'm eating bread, cheese and tomatoes everyday because at least I know what it it and can just point to it in the little shops. Great work people, and big congratulations to the winners, and to Adrian - I'll be sending something to you as soon as it can be arranged my friend. Take care all, keep those tumblers tumbling and those rocks rocking. Laters. |

What a long contest! I knew long ago that I was not going to be able to even come close to a right answer but I have been enjoying reading about the journey with you Rogue!
Congratulations Sharri and Jo!
Stay safe on your Journey Rogue!
