Europe - Cape Town on Motorcycle
I planed a trip from Germany to Cape Town with a friend.
Unfortunetely he backed out at short notice. Start was scheduled about mid July. I dont like to do Africa myself. We wanted to go down south the west route but now I think the east route would be ok too. Is there anybody going this way? I have got time till end of the year. My plan B is to ship the bike to Argentina and ride up to north America. Before I did trips with Backpack, Motorcycle and 4x4. My bike is an Africa Twin. BTW I am 37 years and easy going...I think. Cheers Tom

Europe to Cape Town leaving Nov 1 for 6 months
Hey everyone, lookign for riding partner for a planned trip departing italy about Nov 1.I live near Pisa and have a 2009 GS and plan on going to SA via the eastern route for ~6 months. Fly bike and me home to the USA about May 1.
Ferry to Tunisia, thru Libya (or Algeria or maybe something beside the coastal road in Libya), Egypt (Red Sea diving?), the standard eastern route with a major stop over in the Ruwenzori mountains (gorillas and game parks as I can) and then again in Botswana/Namibia. We spent 5 months there some 15 years ago (eastern > africa and naimibia and overland between) so I'm not completely naïve about the territory or the problems I might encounter. Im 54, a mechanical engineer, and lots of varied travel experience (climbing, diving, off road moto), almost all of it with my lovely wife who cant bring herself to join me on this adventure. More about me is on our blog: osssesinitaly.blogspot.com This feels like a dating service but I'd rather not do this alone, and my short list of friends that would be compatible arent at the same time/interest/ability point in their lives. So what the heck. Jim
