My wife Mary and I drive today to Vancouver
with my bicycle. to begin my long bicycle trip of approximately 6,100km from
Vancouver to Halifax. I am torn between many diverse feeling such as: I can't
wait to get on the road; have I bitten off more than I can chew? Am I being
naive or perhaps downright stupid to even think of taking on something of this
magnitude at my age? However I read an article recently that was based on the
premise that sixty is now the new forty.
I said yes! yes! yes! This was exactly what I wanted to hear, because this
is the way I feel. Age is only a number and I am 62 years young not old. I feel
like a young thoroughbred ready to burst forth from the starting gates and get
the job done. By getting the job done I also want to help put some money into
the Child haven coffers so that they can continue their award winning work with
the needy in India, Nepal, Bangladesh and Tibet.
