Once again the trip is over and back to hard work. We decided to spend as much time as possible in Namibia which turned out to be a good decision. Zambia, Zimbabwe and Botswana were commuted thro on perfect tarmac roads which is somewhat boring at a cruising speed of 80kph. Zimbabwe has a problem with petrol shortages at the moment but otherwise a 5x the bank rate blackmarket made it a cheap country. A planned route from Kasane to Maun thro Chobe NP wasnt possible cos of the bikes not being allowed in the National parks of Botswana (Namimbia aswell). Namibia was truly amazing particularly Damaraland and Kaokoland, just gravel roads and spectacular scenery. Recomended!!
As the roads get better and travelling a bit too easy in South Africa the bikes have been stored in Windhoek ready to be shipped to Asia next April for the next few weeks holiday.
Thanks for the tips and see you on the road. Andy
