“I guess if I am being honest, I was better at playing second fiddle – my life seems to have borne that out – with occasional bursts of first fiddle (The Big Issue, the Amazon, Riding across the Gran Chaco) – a slightly second-rate Ranulph Fiennes or even Pen Hadow. Nothing I have ever done had the benefit of planning – more based on ignorance than risk.” — Gordon Roddick
