Wish I'd read...
Hi all,
Wish I'd read this thread before dropping the bike twice (two-up Africa Twin DCT - full luggage) on the way from Nouakchott (Mauritania) to Diama crossing (Senegal) two days ago. Neither on the infamous piste through the nature reserve, but both times on soft sand encountered randomly on the ride.
I tried to be assertive - as I've read you should - and got dumped off both times.
I'm taking it easy in the soft stuff from now on. Paddling is the way. No heroics!
Be safe!
Simon
