I made it almost to Groningen when the hallucinations
became to much to take. I
was fine leaving Zwolle but after about 60km I started seeing very real things
that weren't there and developing blank patches in my memory as well as feeling
unwell. Since I couldn't trust the signs anymore I turned back for Zwolle as my
phone had died and I could not contact anyone. I was found by two of your club
mates at different points on the way back, sleeping while standing up, I also
fell over a few times.
I made 1105 km in total over the trip and it is the
longest I have tried to date. Alot of silly mistakes
cost me severely and I have learned alot from this
trip. Bill (the American) made it to just Groningen and turned back as he also
felt quite unwell and unable to complete it. Andy (the englishman) completed the course but missed the
controls.
Thank you very much for all your assistance and sorry
for all the annoyance I caused.
You will see me the next time, in a more learned fashion, better able to
tackle the problems ahead.
