• Hi, this is Mike Quinlan writing from Sri Lanka, taking a one month shakedown cruise on my planned several year journey around India and South East Asia. I have bicycled through most of these countries over many decades, but at 80 years old, I have left the bike in the garage and set out with a backpack for the first time since I was in my twenties.

    This blog will follow the plan of my Journey to the East blog on crazyguyonabike.com, that is a few sentences of ramblings followed by a photo, and so on… lots of photos! Being a newbie to this format, I don’t see an option to upload a photo… drag and drop?
