London to Durban, South Africa
 

Hi Guys

after much begging, pleading and loads of chores, i finalyy!!! got my wife to agree to let me go on a 3 month overland trip from London to Durban in South africa.

the plan is to leave in October 2010, plenty of time to plan.

any help with the following will be appreciated:
i am a novice rider and recently bought a Honda CRF230F, will be spending loads of time in the saddle, i am currentlt looking out for a KTM640 adventure, my bike of choice for the trip.

i would like to use the western route via the Sahara, although i am keen on exploring, i will be riding solo and want the easiest route. is the highway(tar road) through the sahara complete? and how far will it take me, will there be any dune riding at all, due to my experience i am extremely anxious about this part of the trip

Looking forward tou your comments

Nothing to worry about matey; it's all one long road down the west side.
