'How about we do a 2000 mile bike tour around the USA...' - T Matthews (non compos mentis, 06/09)

Welcome to your personal insight into the progress, trials (hopefully metaphoric not literal) and tribulations that befall us on our two week trip from San Francisco through a lot of west coast United States and back again.
I hope this blog will give anyone who's interested (maybe you need to get out more) a look at what is going on once we set off on our American adventure.
For anyone who doesn't know, the Red Lion Bikers referred to herein are...
Andy Reid, Shaun 'Digger'Halliwell, Chris Colder, Pete Robinson, Tony Matthews and Neil Heldreich
The bikes are booked, everyone's paid up, gear is being acquired (though quite what Tony needs a wholesale batch of Anusol for is anyone's guess) and we set off on Sunday 28th March.
We hope to have a lot of laughs and if you'd like a few too then read on...

The boys meet TV celebrity Jezza in Terminal 5...

After a journey down the M40 made all the more pleasurable due to beer, champagne and bacon sarnies (and the fact that Reidy didn't snore his head off) imagine our surprise to bump into one of TV's top talents and social hero to us persecuted rural types, yes, Jeremy 'Top Gear' Clarkson (not looking too healthy admittedly and seen here posing with his latest book) who was happy to chat and share a beer with us.

America watch out... we're on our way (Message to Willi Walsh... thanks mate)
