Arrived Butwal Nepal
13th February 2000

Day number 145

Butwal Nepal

Dear all - The Terai of Nepal has been fantastic
cycling - green and lush and like a paradise on earth
- the temperature is perfect for cycling - and we have re-christened the Mahedra Highway - 'Bye bye Road' - in honour of the squillions of friendly smiling Nepali kids who sprint to the roadside to wave and shout 'BYE-BYE!' We have found renewed energy and have rolled along apace -now we are in Butwal - (13th Feb) and we have just one full days riding and a smidgen until we reach Royal Chitwan Park.

We shall send a full story on Delhi and The Terai as
soon as we have time
