Hey Volker,

You are going to love this tour – it was my favourite so far !

Good to her you had some spare (hip) parts installed for the trip too…;-)

Tip: Use an Evoc hip hydration pack to keep the sweat off your back – it gets kinda hot out there.

Cheers,
Mike

as africa was my favourite one, west africa comes “like called for” and I am preparing for 2020. I will register early enough and this will most probably my last long distance ride outside australia, where I live.

I will enjoy preparing for it, reading as much as possible, making sure that I will be as fit as I was for all the other ones.
