Suddenly, sand!
https://wildmania.smugmug.com/Motorc...P1030338-L.jpg I hate sand. I crashed in Morocco a number of years back and this time, I lost the front wheel, trapping my left foot as I went down. Daniel insisted on a reconstruction. :cool4: https://wildmania.smugmug.com/Motorc...P1030340-L.jpg https://wildmania.smugmug.com/Motorc...P1030341-L.jpg |

Before long, it's time to set up camp although I find the time to drop the bike for a fifth time!
https://wildmania.smugmug.com/Motorc...P1030367-L.jpg Time to eat some camp food too. https://wildmania.smugmug.com/Motorc...P1030372-L.jpg Fix my GPS which has broken it's mount. https://wildmania.smugmug.com/Motorc...P1030384-L.jpg Plan for the next day. https://wildmania.smugmug.com/Motorc...P1030394-L.jpg Watch the sunset. https://wildmania.smugmug.com/Motorc...P1030398-L.jpg https://wildmania.smugmug.com/Motorc...P1030399-L.jpg And play around with the camera. https://wildmania.smugmug.com/Motorc...P1030407-L.jpg |
67 miles from Bayantes beyond Tes
Found some shade to take a refreshing drink in Bayantes.
https://wildmania.smugmug.com/Motorc...P1030426-L.jpg Dropped the bike for the sixth time, leaving the town. https://wildmania.smugmug.com/Motorc...P1030431-L.jpg https://wildmania.smugmug.com/Motorc...P1030432-L.jpg https://wildmania.smugmug.com/Motorc...P1030433-L.jpg https://wildmania.smugmug.com/Motorc...P1030434-L.jpg |
Some spectacular riding.

Great photos Paul, and yes I remember Dave well, we road raced at Westwood at the same time!
I trust you're coming to the CanWest Travellers Meeting? We'd love to have you do a presentation on your trip! see link on right... |

80% of the photos are Daniel's, used here with his kind permission. As for Dave, I came across this the other day: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tTJO8mEaV9Q I'm in the UK so won't make CanWest but I do need to get out to BC sometime. Maybe next year. |
But for me, too much of this:
https://wildmania.smugmug.com/Motorc...P1030473-L.jpg and this: https://wildmania.smugmug.com/Motorc...P1030477-L.jpg means my confidence is shot. Low miles today as a consequence. I'm picking my way |

Lunch in Tes.

The washboard claims it's first victim; Daniel's clutch.
