Haha! Forget the smooth black ribbons of Gabon and welcome to Congo! Love it and hate it all the same time...

286km of dirt road heaven and hell... Really hard riding (no back brakes - yes Combrink no winging!) An ice cold ngok at the end of the day. Loved it!

People are really friendly, great fun riding through the villages when all the kids run after you waving and shouting...(a Gary Glitter haven - hmm sorry for that!). Liking Congo.

Hopefully trying to get the bike bits sorted in luanda! Thanks James for helping, good detail info... Rory...not so much!
