He kept it secret because he didn't want fuss and attention at the start because of the very reasons mentioned above. He's been more relaxed about it recently hence the greater knowledge. He has had an amazing year.The thing is time and cash were not a major problem from what I understand, only physical endurance judging by a couple of times I've seen him on the road:-O... Oh and an understanding wife on logistics! If I were able to do the same I wouldn't want anyone to know either, the grief through the year given the history and baggage it carries would be too much.</blockquote>
