Thanks. Wow. Intense. And very helpful.

It was in Winchester Cathedral that my / our rather meagre efforts were first described as a pilgrimage. And you are right. We have fun, tears, jokes, and serious conversations. We discuss bikes and life and death and everything in between. Or nothing. The destinations have been utterly awe inspiring. Mother Nature, prehistoric man, medieval kings and the modern era all have the ability to lift the soul and occasionally tear at it. But above all the journey refreshes our inner selves for another year.

Meditation is powerful. So is Bach’s music. Wish I was there with you!!

A lapsed vicar presenting the last words in a manner that moves some of his audience to transcend thoughts and emotions of their own souls and existence is pretty cool.

A powerful post today Kenneth.
It really is irrelevant how your pilgrimage and meditations is perceived. Rather more important is that it is being received.

Maybe one of those touches is the one that will matter most.

Thank you Kenneth. I am the mentioned Chris & the picture at the end is him & his daughter & her husband – my son; so a family connection.
The meditation is an extraordinary piece whatever you believe about God; beautiful music, a great story, wrenchingly heartfelt & thought provoking poetry written by him & superbly delivered in glorious surroundings. What more would you want from an hour of your time?
So Kenneth declares he is not a proper professional. Expletive deleted here. He is working his cycling socks off; he’s bloody good & he’s getting paid – by which I mean he asks for donations & he gets them. He may not make a profit but he is taking money for what he does – so Kenneth, let’s not hear any more of that nonsense. You are a pro!
If you are reading this & you haven’t seen it yet, make sure to go… It’s an experience you will remember.

Kenny,
Another post that causes wonder — some laughter (they let a cat in a cathedral?), some reflection on your journey and mine as well — the journey we are all on — and some inspiration. Can you hear me cheering for you from here? Hugs!

Another fascinating but reflective and thoughtful post on your pilgrimage and music performances, not forgetting the trusted and sturdy steed, your cargo bike of course.
