    1. Hi Ian…hope you're well….entertaining & interesting Vid but could you give us info on your Riding & Camping gear and why you chose them too please?

    2. Is this guy nuts? Alone through Africa? No
      I’ve thought about a new passport. I’ve sat with the application in my lap for a long time. I can remember hiring a guide to walk across Scotland once, to a visit in Cumbria when I was in my early sixties. Nope.
      I’ve walked miles and miles before but no more. At 76 my legs have left me. Shit.

    3. Great to see so much positive input. I did a similar ride in June this year, I landed in Cherbourg and rode down to the south of Spain, solo age 67. Found it a little lonely from time to time and I was becoming more and more ill. After 3 weeks in the saddle I made it home and straight to hospital, multiple blood clots on my lungs and pneumonia….just new I wasn't well…….lol😅 on the mend still…enjoy the ride brother.

    4. I am 64 and I can totally understand you. Way to go! I have done solo journeys to Russia, Turkey, Marocco… This summer I went to Tunisia. I get that feeling of freedom and adventure looking at this. I will follow with interest!

    5. Fair play, good man and keep her lit, I've been planning a trip to Morocco myself from Ireland, putting it on the long finger, I'm 61 now if im going to do it i may just get it done. Well done to you.

    6. Nice. I rode 15000 km from Cape Town to Kenya and back on the Motoz gps tyre that you have. perfect tyre for the job. replaced my V-strom with a BMW only because there is a BMW dealer in every country in Africa should there be problems. Have a great trip.

    7. We remember riding off the ferry at Portsmouth we went to a B&B and spent the evening there. It took a bit to adjust to riding on left as we are from Canada. It was a wonderful part of our trip to Europe. The trip from Bilboa had been excellent. Thanks for sharing I will never forget the roundabout under the Freeway.
