This is the first page of the blog. I am trying to get blogger to put my oldest post on top. This does not seem possible - so I decided to create all the pages leading up to my departure on the 1st of May 2017 now; and then I will just fill in the blank spaces as things (and time) progresses.

So, one can read the story in sequence down to the current date. Or if you wish to go to a particular date (like today's date) just fill in the date in the search box and come to where I am now in my journey. You can also search for any other stuff that I have written that may interest you. I have run into a problem - Blogger sees me as a robot, so I have to prove that I am a human - I am tired of selecting cars, ice-cream and popcorn to prove that I am not a robot. I am not a robot - see I have selected them all correctly! . Why don't they give one the option to reverse order my blog postings in the first place!

On the 1st of May 2017 I am going to get on my bicycle and cycle from Cape Agulhas in South Afica to Cape Horn in South America. Are you part of my story or not? I need R 6 million in cash - I intend getting it by any legal means possible.

Follow me here and see how it pans out. Join me on my ride! If you can think of any way that you can help me to reach the goal let me know. email me at cmh at aded co.za - Just read to the line. Below the line is just my notepad (if I write a book or something) You can read the story in sequence or just pick it up from today's date (the only problem now is that you have to click older to get to the newer posts!.

I am inviting you to become part of my story. As I indicated - I need R 6 million in cash - I intend getting it by any legal means possible. Follow me here and see how it pans out.

Join me on my ride! (Just read up to his line - below the line are just rabmblings, thoughts and half-baked ideas) ======================================================================================================= Here are some articles to inspire you (and me). R 0 (note on 5 Sept: get gail's bike ready for 94.7 - will be taking it in on Tuesday. Also my bike's gear cable needs to be fixed.(All in preparation of the 603 days away!)

===========================================================================================

That is a bit tedious, so I will continue the process when google has forgotten that I am acting like a robot.

I guess that this is also an analogy of what needs to be done in relation to the R 6 000 000 project - act in a repetitive way in doing what is necessary to achieve ones goal. This again is not dissimilar to the actual cycling activity of getting from one place to another (from Cape to Cape by Bike) - or getting from where you are to where you want to be. The answer in all cases: One pedal after the other, after the other, after the other, after the other, after the other, after the other, after the other, after the other, after the other,...and also to enjoy the ride and the experience in between!

My brother (Andre) always said that one has to get the time past - this is my way.

How am I going to do it? I have a range of projects in mind - I'll be using these pages to Flesh them out, think them through and action them. but now I have to prove that I am not a robot (!) Currently there are a few avenues.

The first idea is already being implemented. I'll be talking to gail - my partner in this endeavour as to how much we should be sharing about it. let us call it the blanket project.

The second is the APP project. Once again I will be divulging the details as the project takes shape.

Eventually I hope to document a map of actions that others may want to follow in their attempt to live their dreams (corny eh?)

Then project 3 is earning a salary as a lecturer at Mancosa (I wonder how much they will pay me for this link?)

Don't tell them of my plans - I haven't told them yet!

Project 4 are the other blogsites we have such as http://freewheelingtwo.com/ through which we hope to make some money on advertising and backlinks (which we need to explore). In the meantime if you run a cycle accessories or sporting equipment outfit - talk to us at cmh at aded dot co.za

A part of the provider of blogsite content is the one you are reading now and the training in Economics site, which I will have to explore more to see how one may be able to increase revenue.

Then - number 5 - Gail is also getting a salary from the FMF

No.6 is trying to make a few bucks by trading online on E-toro; but I must admit - I have not been very successful so far.

Did not do much toady apart from getting the blog dates in order - I want the oldest to be on top, in front and sequence down from there. I can't find a way to do it. Now I am creating a page for each day. But now Google thinks I am a robot so I ave to find the popcorn on a picture to prove that I am not! ======================================================================================================== Thinking about the changes that I will have to make to achieve my goal. What exactly is it. Why am I doing it?

This is a bit tedious, so I will continue the process when google has forgotten that I am acting like a robot.

I guess that what I am experiencing and doing now is an analogy of what needs to be done in relation to the C2C project - act in a repetitive way in doing what is necessary to achieve ones goal. This again is not dissimilar to the actual cycling activity of getting from one place to another (from Cape to Cape by Bike) - or getting from where you are to where you want to be. The answer in all cases: One pedal after the other, after the other, after the other, after the other, after the other, after the other, after the other, after the other, after the other,...and also to enjoy the ride and the experience in between!

04-Sep-15 Clarify the target (604) -4

04-Sep-15 It works like this R6,000,000 over 600 days = R 10 000 per day. At he current price a 10th KR is R1 450 - therefore I need to earn/make 6,69 of 1/10 KR per day (or +/- R 10 000 per day at today's price of +/- $1120 per oz at an exchange rate of R13 for a dollar) it sounds impossible, doesn't it. Let me show you how it is done. I believe that if you set a worthwhile goal and you pour into it all the focus and energy that you have, it can be achieved. And if not, well you have tried. The story of shooting for the stars and reaching the moon - which is not a bad achievement on its own. But if you do reach the goal - not only will it be an inspiration to everybody else - you will also be getting on your bike and live life as it was intended(!) to be lived.

What was the reaction of those around me? Did they join me in my fantasy? Let us see.

Well Gail says it is a fantasy and that I shouldn't tell anyone untill it becomes a reality.

Now I am not sure what i should do about this because part of my plan is having a blog that people want to be following my story. I'll have to see.

Look at in what a sorry state our bicycles are. Dismantled - broken cables, not touched since March 2015 when I brought the home when I came to Martin's wedding. Oh my.

07-Sep-15 (601)

We have entered the 94.7

08-Sep-15: A clear goal (600)

I think this is a better calculation - a clearer goal - I have always been fascinated by gold - it has something to do with truth and honesty - being sound - anyway - the price of a Krugerrand is R 16 000 today. I therefore need 375 of these (or 3750 one tenth Krugerrands) to make up my target amount. I have zero today. I will be logging my progress to that goal here. ======================================================================================

09-Sep-15 (599) I'm tired

of selecting cars, ice-cream and popcorn to prove that I am not a robot. I am not a robot -see I have selected them all correctly , can't you leave me to solve the problem my way since you did not give me the option to reverse order my blog postings in the first place! On the 1st of May 2017 I am going to get on my bicycle and cycle from Cape Agulhas in South Afica to Cape Horn in South America. Are you part of my story or not?
