Ireland

Originally from the UK (I obtained Irish citizenship after the Brexit vote), I lived in Poland for 27 years but currently based in South Africa. I was a chartered accountant by trade and spent the last 20 years of my working life in the cable tv business, originally in the finance area but for most of the time in general management. Now retired I now spend my time on the golf course as it is my main passion. I completed the Pub Ride 2 in 2018 and was hoping to do the inaugural Journey to the East but had to cancel due to other commitments. Been doing quite a bit of mountain biking. Completed the Trans Europa in 2021 and the Garden Route section of Tour d’Afrique in 2022 , together with the NZ of Trans-Oceania. Looking forward to getting back on the touring bike.

I am so excited to join this ride! I am married and have 2 adult children, their spouses and a 14 year old grandson, all of whom are the light of my life! In addition to biking, I love everything outdoors including skiing, snowshoeing and am a Special Olympics Coach. Because I am retired, I spend my time volunteering for Hospice, am on the board for a youth empowerment organization and therapy animal program. Life is grand and I look forward to this wonderful adventure with all of you!

I am a casual cyclist, who has participated in several TDA Global Cycling trips, including the Bamboo Road, part of the Africa ride, and part of Korea/Japan ride. I am coming with my husband, Gonzalo Pastor. We are slow, and get to know the sweepers really well. We are really there to make all the other riders feel good! Looking forward to reuniting with some riders, and meeting new ones.

“TDA allows you to really experience the cultures of other countries. I love especially going places where tourists don’t go along with the usual tourist sites. You meet people that become friends for life. Awesome!”

“Perfect way to visit new countries, visit touristic and less touristic spots. socialize with fellow riders and all by bike. What’s not to like?”
