Bangkok Rusty Gate

Harry Millar — 2009-07-03

Better a rusty gate than a rusty bicycle! I have been on quite a serious campaign to pick up fitness lately as I am going for a holiday in the French Alps in August for a week of mountain biking - the basic idea is lots more riding and less drinking. Okay, more riding in between the drinking! Anyways, I went for a ride yesterday after work - it didn't go too well - I made the rookie mistake of not eating properly and was hungry 10km into the ride. Stopped at a shop and munched a vegetable samoosa, and bought some froot n nut bars, but it was too little way too late - 48km later I called it quits (it was supposed to be a 60-70km ride) feeling weak and generally very cruddy. Man, I really know how to waste my time! H. www.iRideAfrica.com

Thai Lines

Harry Millar — 2009-06-26

The award winning Ko Samui international airport should be on your "Must Visit" list, if you consider youself a traveller. Super-cool, it was.... Except that it was hot..... But the airport was cool..... But it was hot..... You know what I mean! H. www.iRideAfrica.com

Coral

Harry Millar — 2009-06-24

Or once was coral, but now is just a patternalistical rock on the beach. Very few organic substances become, or are ever considered geological rock. Coral is one, and amber would be another rare example. That's your geeky fact for the day! Have a good week! H. www.iRideAfrica.com

Thai Sunset

Sitting at a pub, after a hard day's scootering around the island, sipping a cold beer and watching this sunset. Doesn't get better. Have a good day! H. www.iRideAfrica.com

He is Ken

Harry Millar — 2009-06-19

Ken, who has featured in past photos, in his element. As I see him anyway. Ken's a rover. A nomad. An adventurer. An unconventional hobbit. In habit and in size. A sports star. A musician. A questioner. A porn star. A blonde porn star. He has an international harem. He doesn't have shoes. He makes strange sounds. He is not evil. He is my friend. www.iRideAfrica.com

Longtail Island

Harry Millar — 2009-06-17

A better view of one of the longtail boats- this one has a realy small engine on it - most of them were bigger boats with full-on car engines! This is possibly my favorite of the island pics - it really epitomises the island views. Hav uh gud dai! H. www.iRideAfrica.com

Ko Phangan beach

Harry Millar — 2009-06-15

Sweet tropicalnessness! We went snorkelling on the reef in the picture - I went looking for man-eaters but, alas, found none :( Man-eaters were found elsewhere, but that's another story.... I'll tell you one day when you're young. Have a great day! H. www.iRideAfrica.com

Coloumbrella

Thailand is easily the most colourfull country I have ever seen. I think westerners could learn encyclopedic amounts from Thai culture, colourfullness being one of the more basic lessons! Be colourfull in body,mind, and spirit! South Africa is colourfull too - www.iRideAfrica.com

Ocean View

Harry Millar — 2009-06-08

Ocean View? You bet! I stayed a few days in the bungalow with the open door and red hammock. £6 per night! That's the reggae bar/restaurant an the bottom right-hand side. A smashing spot. I am on the dawn of a new era - a project that will be diverting my energies. Your personal project is to think of any cyclists (road or mountain bike) that you have in your life, and think about whether they would enjoy a cycling holiday in South Africa. Then tell them about www.iRideAfrica.com ! Nuff said. Happy Monday, have a great week! H. www.iRideAfrica.com
