Cost
Yes I agree with the above, my wife and I flew our bikes to Egypt and then took about 95 days to get to Kenya including Uganda. It has so far cost us $30000Aus but that included a 4 day Trek in the Siemien Mountains, 4 day Fellucca Trip on the nile (While waiting for ferry) Masai Mara 4 days, Rafting in Uganda, and also a trip to see Gorillas. We did however splash out and stayed at Mena House in Cairo for 1 night ($480) We also included a trip into the Omo Valley for 12 days. Apart from that we stayed at fairly average lodgings and camped, being aussies we were not backward in having a  either. This also included all flights to get to Egypt and Visas etc along the way. I think excluding extras for a Cairo to Capetown I would allow $100 a day for 2 people 2 bikes, whilst on the road, but I have got the attitude save a little more and do the things you want as it is cheaper than going back, and you forget the price a long time before the memory.
Cheers
