Georgian Ends 9-Year Bicycle Trip


Dzhumber Lezhava returned to Tbilisi Sunday, ending a nine-year trip around the world by bicycle. Lezhava, 63, began his journey on Aug. 13, 1993. He traveled 164,000 miles and wore out nine bicycles. "I missed you (Georgians) a lot," he said. "I can hardly believe my trip is over and I managed to fulfill it."
