to do something that is bigger then me or you

Fri ,10/06/2011

Its been crazy 2 weeks, not moving with the bike but my mind feel very busy.

Preparing my self and the right “ground” for Orly, the blind lady that is joining me in the next 2 weeks on a tandem bike with an escort car. A friend that volunteer to help us on the escort car canceled his joining 2 weeks before the arrival of Orly and I needed to push myself and see how we going to do that.

In the last 3 months I counted on him and 2 weeks before he got cold feet cant deal with big project and from the lemons in life I will try to make a good lemonade.

At list I was in a good place with amazing friends around me.

In the city of Adelaide I had one of the most happiest  meeting in my journey, a good friend,omri, from the army time is working here toghter with his wife,adi,and hid brother,Jacky, live here and invited me (6 months ago) to be a part of the family as long as I needed.

We didn’t talk too much in the last 10years but we always knew whats going on with each other and between good friends from the army or the childhood friends there is a bond that its hard to descarivedbut you can imagine.

After dealing with long deserts ,bad weather and lonely moments I forgot how is it to feel “like home” that I got friends around me all the day and we can lough about the past, the future and the present.

The food was great and we had really great time together and I was so happy to have them in this time of the journey because I earn this meeting and it also push me for the future.

In Adelaide I meet the small and warm Jewish community in the city and they help me as much as they can with the big project that we about to do.

When you need help you see how great people can be.

Another country, another continents and my last one…


I landed in the city of Dunedin in the south island after really long flight that was delayed for 4 hours and I already thought that It will be faster to go on a peddle boat… a funny story was when in the connection flight the guys moved something in the the box of the bike and the horn of Emuna was beeping (it sound like a car alarm) and they new zealandres thought more of the detraction of a bomb that about to explode so they called me in the speakers of the airport:”roei sadan come immediately to see whats going on with your box!”.

So I walk to them and they gave me a vast and we run toghter on the runway to “deactivated” the bomb…

after 5 years I meet a good friend\family of main, ran shapira, and the meeting was really great, ran living here in this amazing place and after all the stories and the photos I was happy to see what it all about and he helped me to just acclimatized to the idea that I am now in lord of the rings land.

great time with Ran

We climbed the steepest street in the world and we most of the time just enjoy life.

For me it is time to go, I feel the butterflies in my stomach before starting the another continent, we looked at maps and planed the next 2 months route but maps are only maps and I am the one that need to make the maps a reality.

It was hard to break again from a good friend but I know that we will meet in 6 months in Israel…

a Israeli guy that wanted to cycle in new zealand contacted me I after I learned him (a journey on the road its like a relationship and you don’t want to start something with the wrong person ) I sensed that we have to chemistry together so we started to cycle together and to see new zealand in a share view.

This country is very calm and every where you look you see the green hills with the white dots (ship) on them.

like in every new continent I am still thinking about the last one and every thing look so different then asia and china…

I have rust on my body but after a 5 days on the road I fell strong again and my body feel relaxed when he is working all the day and he gets his amount of adrenalin the he used to have in the last years.

Some say that it like drugs but at list its good drugs.

I knew that new cycle in new zealand will not push my phisical limits but I was surprise to to climb a short but steep climb, that took us 3 hours and to see that this is the highest pass in new zealand … I hope that it will not always feel like a vacation and we will earn our rest in the night.

etamar is new to the world of cycling in the world(he did many mountain cycling in Israel) so he got many things to learn but he got the right attitude of wanted to learn and to be more efficient on the road.

We cycled on a cycling rout “the otago rail train route” and every day we camping and enjoying each other cooking and the Israeli coffee in the morning and maybe its because that I cycled in china where I don’t have no one to share the view and the thought of the road I was so happy to be with a friend that can give another points to your view.

The land is so beautiful and IF the weather is with you its a heaven for cyclists but if its raining hard it more feel like a hell on a bike but together hell its a little less harder to cross.
