UK to Ghana September 2009
 

Hello all,

In late September I will be riding my R1100GS from the UK (South Coast) to Ghana in West Africa. I will be visiting a charity based in NE Ghana that I am involved with. I will be taking the following route: France/Spain, Morocco, W.Sahara, Mauretania, Mali, Burkino Faso, the usual route, no off-roading (unless I have to). I plan to take about 4-5 weeks. I will spend about 1 month in Ghana, then ride home (just like going to Tescos).

It will be a mixture of camping and cheaper hotels, and I will be doing a bit of site-seeing on the way down. You are welcome to hook up with me if you want.

Please drop me a line if you are interested.

Ben.

Archie,

It would be great to hook up, especially for Morocco & Mauri. Can you drop me a private e:mail? I am unable to send you an e:mail because it says I need a minimum of 8 posts.

Cheers.
Ben.
