We bicycled two days to reach Candy from Polonnaruwa, with rides of 80 and 50 km. In the heat of Sri Lanka, with some elevational increases, both days were a challenge. We took a spice tour at our first night’s lodging at Nalanda. We were glad to arrive in Candy for a two day layover, time to visit sights in that city and do our laundry.
I am traveling to Sri Lanka in October 2011 for a two week bicycle trip organized by Exodus Tours, encircling the southern half of Sri Lanka, stopping at Buddhist shrines, tea plantations, wildlife preserves, and coastal beaches. In route to Sri Lanka, I will stop in Hong Kong to visit friends and go to a jazz festival; go to a rotary project site near Angkor Wat in Cambodia; visit Penang, Perhential Islands, and Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia; and stop by Singapore.
