This is what my "oil-filter" looked like when we opened the engine case...

And if you need to fix your bike at madagascar, go for the work-shop at moto-madagascar.com - and stay away from Sport Extreme... that`s my tip.

as for now..

as for now, Im sitting in Antsirabe, waiting for my bike to be repaired, and I have done so for three days. The entire electrical system on the bike has over the years been fixed several times with what local people here call the Vita Gasy way. In other words, you dont get new parts, you make parts with what youve already got. Ive had enough problems, so I decided it was time to fix it. So almost the entire electrical system is now beeing changed, at a cost of the parts, and about 30 euro in labour.. Great. So I hope everything is going to be sorted out now. My friend will arrive here in Madagascar on the 15th of January, so its good to get it fixed before that.
So for now, times passes with eating drinking, sleeping and reading a lot of stories from travelers here at Horizons Unlimited.

Motorcycling the magnificent landscapes of Mexico, the USA and Canada.
'Sam Manicoms new book! is a gripping rollercoaster of a two-wheeled journey which takes you riding across some of the most stunning landscapes in the world. This enticing tale has more twists and turns than a Rocky Mountain Pass and more surprises than anyone would expect in a lifetime. There are canyons, cowboys, idyllic beaches, bears, mountains, Californian vineyards, gun-toting policemen with grudges, glaciers, exploding volcanoes, dodgy border crossings and some of the most stunning open roads that a traveller could ever wish to see.
