I'm currently on a ship in the middle of the Bay of Biscay but due to the wonders of modern technology, I heard from Derek a few minutes ago.
He had to leave Tajikistan as his visa time was up and has arrived in Osh in Kyrgyzstan with the remnants of his bike (the frame is a write-off as well). He can stay in-country for 60 days and will rest up before heading for Bishkek and its airport where we hope to ship in what he needs.
Message from Derek:" I have used the phrase 'The Kindness of Strangers' a few times now in my blogs, but after my recent accident it has taken on a new meaning for me. Without the help I'm being given my trip would be over and to all who have become part of my adventure I cannot find words to thank you, except to say you have renewed my faith in human kindness. "
Many thanks everyone!
