Pavel's 2012 Father-Daughter Tour
« on: July 26, 2012, 08:20:01 AM »
Hi All!

Some of you may have noticed Pavel has recently been absent from the boards of this Forum. This is because he and his young daughter are midway on a tour from Selma, North Carolina to Austin, Texas here in the US. He PM'd me this evening and asked if I could pass-along the link to his daughter's blog-and-photo site detailing their journey. I am happy to do so. It is located at: http://www.waywordway.com

Daughter Bianca is doing phenomenally well at age 12, and so is Dad. They're making a lifetime's worth of memories every day as they battle record heat and humidity during their tour. They have very limited connectivity, but I am sure both would greatly appreciate any encouragement from the Forum and they're doing marvelously. Yesterday, they hit the 1,000-mile mark on their journey!  

Pavel is riding his Thorn Nomad, described here:

Rogue's Gallery entry here: http://www.thorncycles.co.uk/forums/index.php?topic=3981.msg17782#msg17782
Some photos of his bike and hometown -- where they started this tour -- here:

I'm posting this as a placeholder in hopes Pavel will add his thoughts and photos upon his return. He is a photographer of great talent, so we're all in for a treat when he does.

If you and Bianca read this, Pavel, know you have our collective best wishes for a safe and happy journey and return, with all our thoughts behind you.

All the best,

Dan.
