The journey begins

Just a short note to say goodbye.
I am sitting in JHB airport all checked in and waiting for the bording gates to open. THe flight up from PE was painless enough. I managed to sit next to fellow triathlete Russell Meyer so at tleast there was someone to talk to. SAA rushed me R178 for excess backage - but some fat 120kg guy didn't have to pay a cent extra... don't get me started!
Check-in in JHB was painless though with no excess baggage charges. My bike box only weighs 25kg which is under the limit - cardboard is the way forward!

Will blog again as soon as possible, but may only be in a few days.
Philippines, here I come!
