Headlining this issue is the stunning Wheels & Waves feature event, El Rollo – dressing up and riding around like Dad (or Granddad) has never been so much fun. Meanwhile matters have turned serious in the high-pressure world of EnduroGP. And Andy Dukes has indeed done a runner. Perhaps Chris Evans has it right – sell the bikes.

My final deadline was in Kuala lumpur<br />

for the first marathon, on 21 May, which I<br />

eventually made with ease, proving that I<br />

had, indeed, gone too fast. eighteen<br />

countries and 18,000 kilometres in 11<br />

weeks had always been ambitious, but<br />

at what cost? France, Germany, Austria,<br />

hungary, Serbia, Bulgaria and Turkey<br />

went by in a blur, while Iran, Dubai India,<br />

Bhutan and Myanmar had their own<br />

challenges. It was only when I got to<br />

Thailand, laos and vietnam where I<br />

started to relax, safe in the knowledge<br />

that I could make it to Malaysia on time<br />

for my first marathon. Now, looking back,<br />

I know I need to visit some of those<br />

countries again to do them more justice<br />

than ‘just passing through’.
