Guest Big H Posted May 23, 2008 Share I met Francois Le Grange in Ondjiva yesterday. He is from Cape town and he is touring through Africa. The bike is GT. The photos were taken just out of POndjiva a bit later and I again saw him not far from Mongua where our camp is. By this time he is most likely past Xangongo. He has a tough protion ahead as the road form Xangongo to Cahama is in a very bad state. I gave him the Hub web address and he promised to let us know of his progress. His email address is francoisafrica@gmail.com. Drop him a mail if you want too. These guys have guts and they are the real cyclists. Not wanabes like us.

Guest Big H Posted May 23, 2008 Share I'd love to do this........anywhere but Africa!! Why not??Backpacked all around and its fine. It is only in YOUR part of Africa where you have to be afraid. The rest of Africa is fine and loves us....... except maybe in the Congo where there are still cannibals....... but then I may be in danger there, I am sure the cannibals will not like sinewy maargat cyclists!!!!!!!!!!!

Guest Big H Posted May 23, 2008 Share were is his Helmet? Marius my liewe ou maat. Mense soos jy wat baie val het helmets nodig. As jy elke dag 80 to 100 km vir die volgende paar maande wil ry is 'n goeie hoed baie meer belangrik as 'n piepot op jou se koppie. Flip van Dyke my Hollandse maat wat eers deur Afrika gery het en by ons in Mosambiek gestop het het gese dat 'n helmet net ekstra bagasie is as jy so ver toer. Ek het nog nooit so fietser met 'n helmet aan gesien nie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
