75th Edition, October 2009
 \"Collapsed\"So off we go, getting darker as we start the 100 mile ride to the only reasonably sized village on this route. To kick things off, we\'re instantly confronted with a large wooden bridge that looks like it collapsed a long while back. I should be wiser after all the previous river crossings, instead I head straight in without first walking through to find a sensible route. It\'s deep, and more importantly, the current is strong, I\'m lucky to make it to the far bank without incident. Simon isn\'t as lucky, falling in the deep water. We wrestle the overloaded KTM upright, and a Kamaz 6 wheel drive truck takes pity on us, leading a shallower route across the rest of the river. Again Simon falls in a deep section close to the bank. It can be hard work fighting against the current to right these heavy overland bikes.\"
