Talk Talk

I have some great events planned over the next couple of months... from Cape Town to Chorley. Can't be bad. Come along if you're in the area.

I'll be at Kalk Bay Books in Cape Town on August 23 for a talk & signing  (6 for 6.30pm).

I am organising The Word, a one-day festival for Lancashire writers @ Astley Hall in Chorley. It's all day, and starts at 9.30am. Go here for info

The Lytham St Annes Tangent club will host me on September 25 at the Glendower Hotel, St Annes (7.30)

On Oct 3 I head off to the Bowling Green in Charnock Richard to meet some fellow bikers in the AJS & Matchless club (8.30).

Hi Alan

Stumbled across your blog yesterday. trust that your adventures are going well, wherever you are right now. I'm reading Long Way Down (Ewan and Charleys adventures) and am now determined to bring myself to ride to Rwanda and spend some time there.
Keep posting - I am very interested to hear what you are getting up to :-)
Best regards,
Mukhtar

Mukhtar! Terrific to hear from you.

Rwanda is a fantastic country – very beautiful, good food and fabulous riding. You could probably get there on tarmac for most of the way. Depends on your bike, but if you can manage dirt roads you will see a lot more.
I was in Cape Town a few weeks ago, including an evening at Kalk Bay Books giving a talk and signing. Enjoy the Cape Town summer.
