"In November 2008, Simon Evans and Fearghal O'Nuallain began the first Irish circumnavigation of the globe by bicycle. Their unsupported expedition will cover over 30,000km, passing through 30 countries and some of the highest, lowest, driest, coldest, warmest and loneliest places on earth. In doing so, they will be promoting the positive contribution that cycling can make to mental health by encouraging people to get on their bikes, and by raising funds for Aware."
I had massive respect for their plans and little was I to know then that they would be enjoying Christmas dinner in Yerevan, 2009 courtesy of Tom and his wife!
Congrats on finishing the ride. Their blog is an entertaining read with a good dollop of humour. They are now getting on with the next adventures.

I'm also slightly jealous of Simon's BMX skills:-
