We're a bit ahead of schedule as we thought we would cross to guinea Monday but it looks like its tomorrow. All good as we want to make up a few days in hand.

We had a great ride today with 530km under the belt on some shocking roads... Good practice for what's ahead.

The day started with coffee at a roadside cafe, delicious and at 20p a cup!

Saw amazing baobab trees and plains with hundreds of the of them scattered.
Had a very funny moment with Adrian and his first "in the woods" moment!

Clutch watch is back on so hold tight and keep an eye on this space

River Gambia

. I noticed a slight oil leak from the master cylinder...checked the level and it looks ok so hopefully just a bit of paranoia!

Stopped and helped some people with a puncture, hopefully that's our good deed done that has earned a return!

Saw baboons and passed through the Niokola kopa national park, saw baboons and amazing vegetation...Erm that was about it!

Got into an auberge for 5:30, a bit expensive but has a pool and cold beer!
