Hi
Clive and I leave Cape Town on 01- September this year (not long now) We are travelling towards Nairobi and if Sudan is ok will make our way to Alexandria where the bikes will be shipped to Turkey.
I plan to blog about our route which may be useful to you for next year.

Hi, I really fancy this trip. What is your itinerary? I'm afraid I'm not prepared to camp and will not stay in anything less than 4 star accommodation. I take it you have someone with a support vehicle following you.

It will take about 4 to 6 months. I am shipping my 2019 KTM 790 Adventure from Australia.

We won't be compatible. I will stay in clean and cheaper accommodation. There will be camping when needed. No support vehicle.

Can you please let me know the blog we can follow you on. We are thinking about the same route with our LC105.
Many thanks.
Cheers.

I am very interested in going. Do you have a route planned yet? Do you plan on riding roads or doing cross country? How many miles do you plan per day?
I am curious how you plan to get from NE Africa to Spain.



I have crossed Russia, with a side trip to Mongolia, into Ukraine and up to Amsterdam. Also have ridden throughout central and eastern Europe.

I won't have detail plan. My route is SA to Eqypt up the the East Coast, Jordon, Israel, then ferry to (Turkey, Greece or Italy), then Spain. I plan to ride both road and off road - all depend on the scenery. Each day riding distance also depends on sightseeing and road condition. Everything is flexible.


I have done 2 long overseas trips. Vladivostok to Amsterdam. Sweden to Australia.
