Accra (Ghana) to London (UK)
Hello all,
I’m planning to ride from Accra (Ghana) to London (UK) primarily along the coast, leaving sometime in Feb 2017 and am wondering if anyone is interested in doing this with me?
I’m aiming to use a mix of dirt and paved roads to keep it interesting. Road selection will be based on the best way to get to interesting/unusual/awesome destinations along the way. I’m not in a rush (at the latest, I can put off being back in the UK until the start of June) so would like to explore as much of West Africa as possible.
It’s likely that I will complete the trip on a bike with an engine far smaller than is optimal (125cc). As this is what I currently own and buying a new bike in Ghana would be too expensive and second hand bikes are extremely unreliable. However, given I’m not in a rush I don’t see this as a massive problem. Moreover, my current bike can be easily fixed on the road.
For accommodation I’m planning a mix of free/wild camping, paid camping sites and the odd hotel/hostel/guesthouse. I don’t plan to take any cooking equipment to save on space.
PM me for more details.
