Kalahari Challenge (26th to 28th June)

[nonky]

There are a couple of days left to enter for the Gem Diamonds Kalahari Challenge, which is hosted in and around Gaborone from 26-28 June.  Gabs is an easy 4-5hour drive on good roads and the border crossing is relatively painless.  We rode some of the proposed route and it looked like a lot of fun.
