The world of international bicycle touring has been flung into a state of cheek blister bursting hysteria tonight on circulation of a rumour that Buff3y The Hardcore Solo Adventure Cyclist may be heading out on the long road later in 2021. This outlet is not able to confirm the news at this time, but there are significant vibrations out there in the bicycle touring universe that Buff3y may be gracing some remote road out in some far-flung part of the planet and posting pictures of himself with his bike in the not too distant future. If true, this will be a major event in the emergence of bicycle touring in the post-COVID era, the ramifications of which could be earth shattering. A spokesperson for Buff3y has been quoted as saying, “Don’t know, but he seems to be eschewing the use of any vowels other than the indiscriminate”. Please standby for further breaking news in coming weeks.

Another spokesman asks “If you freeze your arse off long enough in the mountains, who knows what you might come up with?”.
Such a decision can only really be the result of brain-freeze.
Say it ain’t so. Will consider house sitting.
Please tend the worm-farm.
May the winds of Stribog be at your back!
Amen brother Ian
You daft b****r, what are you up to now? Much love xx
