Some Like It HOT
Hello there,
As traveled as you are, I'm certain you have researched both routes up
along side Lake Turkana. A year and a half ago a friend and I rode our bikes up the east side to Omorate as you may do. I was on a fully loaded (of course) KLR and my buddy was on his DR. It was a challenging ride due to the rocks and loose sand. But the never ending relentless heat was the killer for me. No real shade, no relief. If it weren't for the killer heat, it would have been a very enjoyable off road ride.
Does the Land Cruiser have AC? lol
We found a money changer and fuel in Omarate. The local scene on the river watching folks fill their water buckets right next to others bathing in soap got my attention.
Enjoy!
