In May 2012, together with my dynamic, energetic and truly international team of 5 cyclists from Gone Adventurin' and BP de Silva, I'll be cycling 700km from the southern-most tip of Sri Lanka to the northern-most tip in an adventure of our lifetimes!

Our goal in taking on this grueling adventure in 10 days is to raise funds for the charity Practical Action which does some amazing work at the grassroots level in Sri Lanka by using technology to reduce poverty.

Please support me in this journey that we're about to undertake and follow our progress as we share inspiring human stories and the stunning beauty of the island during our expedition.

Check out the route and elevation map. The highest point is 2,300m above sea level. And we start on the coast!
